I chose to be in the rain with the Marine Corps’ heavy-duty commander, Colonel Park

(1)I chose to get rained on with Colonel Lim Tae-hoon, the Marine Corps’ heavy-duty commander

(4)Reporter Kim Do Kyun
(5)The phone recording between Marine Corps Commander Kim Gye-hwan and Marine Corps Central Investigation Chief, released by the Military Human Rights Center on the 24th, has an important meaning in finding out the truth of the allegations of external pressure raised in connection with the case of Corporal Ko Chae
(6)The call between the two took place on the night of August 2, when Colonel Park Jung-hoon, who was the head of the Marine Corps’ investigation team, transferred related records of manslaughter charges to eight people, including Lim Sung-keun, the head of the Marine 1st Division, to the Gyeongbuk National Police Agency. Shortly after the transfer of the police, Colonel Park was dismissed from his position as the head of the investigation team

(1)In a phone call that lasted for 4:42 p.m., Commander Kim said, “There was nothing wrong with the Korean Marine Corps because it was investigated truthfully anyway, so Jung-hoon must have been frustrated,” but one can guess that Commander Kim also thought there was no problem with the Marine Corps investigation team’s investigation results
(2)Regarding Colonel Park’s decision to hand over the investigation results to the North Gyeongsang Provincial Police Agency, Commander Kim said, “In the end, Colonel Park is not going to take responsibility for it,” adding, “If it doesn’t work, we will have no choice but to go for violating my order later.” It sounds like defending Colonel Park, or at least revealing that he has no intention of holding him accountable
(3)Also, the call at the time proves that Colonel Park Chung-hoon’s claim that there was external pressure from the Ministry of National Defense’s legal officer Yoo Jae-eun over the transfer of police records was true
(4)When Commander Kim asked, “There must be a phone call between the Justice Officer of the Ministry of National Defense and the investigators of the Marine Corps.” “There are records,” the chief of the Central Investigation Division replied, “There are records, and during the meeting with my supervisor, the legal officer called me.”
(5)And when he heard everything, he said, “Everyone felt that this was too much external pressure and that it was giving illegal instructions.” The phone call with the legal officer mentioned by the chief of the Central Investigation Division took place at 4:07 p.m. on August 1, when Colonel Park turned on his iPhone speaker and called the legal officer Yoo Jae-eun. The call was heard not only by Colonel Park, but also by the chief of the Central Investigation Division and a senior investigator
(6)Colonel Park claimed that Yoo exerted pressure to charge only under the battalion commander with direct negligence over the investigation results of Corporal Chae’s accident. According to the released transcript, it can be seen that Yoo’s comments were also viewed as an illegal order of external pressure

(1)However, the prosecution team of the Ministry of National Defense has already reported that the Marine Corps investigation team handed over to the Gyeongbuk Police Agency
(2)He didn’t seem to know that he took it
(3)Regarding the military prosecution’s attempt to retrieve the records, the commander said, “The Ministry of National Defense seems to be overdoing it to take the records that were handed over to the police,” adding, “The prosecution team of the Ministry of National Defense contacted the Gyeongbuk Police Agency and asked that the records of the case be not officially received, and there was a rumor that the police contacted the Marine Corps 1 Gwangsu.”
(4)He also said that the moment he took back the records, he would hold them all back, suggesting that the Defense Ministry’s prosecution team’s retrieval of documents was an offense
(5)All of these can be checked as the recording of the call between the Marine Corps Commander and the Central Disaster Management Commander is released
(6)Director Lim Tae-hoon, who released the transcript, said in a telephone interview with “Oh My News” on the 24th that the chief of the Central Investigation Division was a deputy under Colonel Park Jung-hoon, who was the head of the investigation, and that he and Colonel Park investigated the late corporal, adding that he made a difficult choice when his promotion depends on him and his future military life remains
(7)Lim added that the person must have felt a lot of psychological pain about the distortion of the truth, but I guess he thought that telling the truth correctly would realize freedom of conscience
(8)The following is a summary of the questions and answers I shared with Director Lim
(9)- The Marine Corps investigation team, which investigated the death of the late Corporal Chae, released the transcript of the call between the Marine Corps commander and the commander of the Central Investigation Division on the day they handed over the related data to the police The meaning of the transcript is
(10)The chief of the Central Disaster Management Team is a person who investigated the late corporal with Colonel Park Jeong-hoon, who was the head of the Marine Corps’ investigation team, and Colonel Park. He knows all the inside stories of this case, but disclosing this is very important in the process of finding out what the truth is. In fact, it must have been very burdensome In the future, he chose something that was not easy, even though his promotion and military life were at stakeThe person must have felt a lot of psychological pain about the distortion of the truth, but I guess he saw that telling the truth correctly is realizing freedom of conscience
(11)I wonder why Colonel Park, who handed over the relevant records as a police officer, was immediately relieved of his position and booked by the military prosecution
(12)It’s a matter that goes beyond simply being courageous and amazing. You can be disadvantaged like Colonel Park It’s more than just going to endure it. It’s often said that it’s rain that falls together I can’t put an umbrella on Colonel Park, so I think he thought he’d take the rain with him It must have been very difficult, with his wife and children at stake and his military career at stake In the end, this person seems to have followed a sound of conscience about what the truth is
(13)- What do you think will happen to Colonel Park in the future
(14)The Ministry of National Defense will indict Colonel Park In the present situation, we cannot help but indict In the end, the military prosecution will have no choice but to indict Colonel Park in order to hide the external pressure in the investigation process
(15)Neither the Presidential Office nor the Defense Department has made much effort to explain the allegations raised so far
(16)The position so far, but now it’s going a step further and trying to siphon off Defense Minister Lee Jong-seop If replaced by Minister Shin Won-sik, there will probably be a major naval operation It is also a problem that the large opposition party is neglecting it. The failure to propose the impeachment of the defense minister is a huge mistake by the Democratic Party of Korea
(17)The root cause is that President Yoon Suk Yeol nominated Rep. Shin Won-sik, a flawed lawmaker, as defense minister, but the Democratic Party cannot be free from the responsibility for failing to bring forward an impeachment motion to have such a person nominated. Now, the politics of responsibility is missing. Neither the government nor the ruling party is taking responsibility. This will only make it harder for the people
(18)Meanwhile, the National Assembly’s plenary session, which was originally scheduled to be held on the 25th, was canceled as all floor leaders of the Democratic Party of Korea resigned after the motion to arrest Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, was passed. As a result, it will take up to 240 days to pass the plenary session and miss the fast-track Maginot Line of the special prosecutor’s bill on the death of corporal
(19)In the case of an independent counsel bill discussed by the National Assembly’s Judiciary Committee, the Judiciary Committee can vote on the plenary session as the Democratic Party of Korea wishes after a total of 240 days, adding 60 days at the plenary session on the 180th However, the 21st term of the National Assembly is until May 29, 2023. Now, even if it is designated as a fast-track agenda, the ruling and opposition parties must reach an agreement or the chairman of the National Assembly decides to pass the National Assembly, but the people’s power is maintaining its opposition to the independent counsel
