Here is what the Moon administration is claiming in response to the UFP providing a document showing that new National Security Advisor Park Jie-won signed a secret agreement before the 2000 Intra-Korean summit to offer the Kim regime a $3 billion payday:

Cheong Wa Dae said Wednesday the government has no document related to an alleged under-the-table agreement with North Korea in 2000 signed by Park Jie-won, newly appointed head of South Korea’s state spy agency.
It was countering political attacks made by the main opposition United Future Party (UFP) that Park had signed the accord, ahead of the inter-Korean summit talks, to offer US$3 billion in financial support to Pyongyang. Park was one of the closest aides to then President Kim Dae-jung, who had a historic meeting with the North’s leader Kim Jong-il.
The UFP made public a copy of what it claims to be a secret agreement. Park has flatly denied that he had signed such a document.
