As it was confirmed in May that the wife of a doctor, Kwon Deok-cheol, the wife of the candidate’s wife of the Minister of Health and Welfare, purchased farmland in Ganghyeon-myeon, Yangyang-gun, Gangwon-do, there are suspicions that it was speculative. In particular, Mr. Lee stated that ’15 years of farming experience’ in the documents submitted while purchasing the farmland, which is also controversial.
According to the Office of Representatives Kim Mi-ae and Lee Jong-seong, Lee purchased 783 square meters of farmland in Ganghyeon-myeon, Yangyang in May. At the time of purchase, Mr. Lee submitted an agricultural management plan to acquire farmland, and said that he was a doctor and had 15 years of farming experience. In addition, he said he would continue farming activities by constructing his own farming in the future.
Lee revealed that on the 10th, after Kwon was nominated as a candidate for the Minister of Welfare, the purpose of acquiring this farmland was changed from’Agricultural Management’ to’Weekend Experience Farming’. It is to operate as a farmland for weekend experiences rather than farming directly. According to the Farmland Act, farmland for the purpose of’agricultural management’ can be owned by farmers or agricultural corporations, but in the case of weekend experience farming,’individuals who are not farmers’ can also acquire for the purpose of hobby or leisure activities such as weekends. .
It was found that Lee bought 572m2 of land in Ganghyeong-myeon and 73.59m2 of above-ground housing along with the farmland immediately afterwards. Farmland, land, and housing cost 290 million won, and Lee said that the land and housing were leased for 70 million won in deposit.
Assemblyman Kim said, “Isn’t it that the candidate couple who currently resides in Gangnam, Seoul bought a house in Gangwon-do, not a real residence, but a speculative nature that aimed at market price gains in mind, such as future development?” One tenant did not receive a fixed date for the six-month contract and did not establish a jeonsegwon. It is quite unusual, and it is suspected that it is not a regular acquaintance or residence for simple administrative purposes.”

In June of last year, Mr. Lee also purchased a part of a shopping district (4 pyeong of land, 8 pyeong of building) in Gaepo-dong, Gangnam for 280 million won. The contract of sale was made as a transaction between parties without a realtor. Assemblyman Kim said, “There is a possibility that (the contract) is a’down contract’ in which the price lower than the actual transaction price is written in the contract to reduce the capital gains tax.” He raised suspicion that it was the purpose of receiving a lotto sale.
Rep. Kim, a member of the National Assembly’s Health and Welfare Committee, said, “In a situation where the whole country is suffering from the government’s wrong real estate policy, the real estate transaction of the spouse of the minister of the minister is a lot of doubt.” On the other hand, two leases, such as going through an agency, are quite unusual and look like problems.”
