Jeon Woo-won, grandson of former President Chun Doo-hwan, appeared at the airport in a black suit.
I chose to go to Korea in about two weeks after I started exposing the suspicion of the Jeon family’s slush funds.
Mr. Jeon was led out by the police, and first expressed his desire to find the victims of the 5.18 Gwangju Democratization Movement and apologize.
“I want to cooperate as hard as possible to come out of the investigation and apologize to the bereaved families and victims of the 5/18 group as soon as possible.”
Even before boarding the plane to Korea, he asked the May 18 Memorial Foundation for help with a visit, saying, “I want to apologize.”
However, the visit to Gwangju was postponed as Mr. Jeon was arrested at the same time as entering the country on charges such as drugs.
Previously, on the 17th, during a live broadcast on YouTube, Jeon revealed in real time the appearance of administering a presumed drug substance, and was subject to police investigation.
Regarding the charges of drug use, Mr. Jeon also virtually admitted.
“I showed everything so that my sins could not be avoided on the air.”
The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s Drug Crime Investigation Unit plans to conduct drug reagent tests against Mr. Jeon while continuing to investigate suspicions of drug use by acquaintances.
Among the acquaintances that Mr. Jeon disclosed earlier, we have already conducted an investigation on two people living in Korea.
