President Yoon Caught on Hot Mike Using Curse Word to Refer to U.S. Congress
It appears that President Yoon is not a big fan of the U.S. Congress:
South Korea’s presidential office defended President Yoon Suk-yeol on Thursday after he was caught on video using foul language to apparently refer to U.S. lawmakers.
In the video, Yoon is seen talking with U.S. President Joe Biden at a fundraiser for fighting infectious diseases in New York on Wednesday. As he turns away to leave, he appears to tell his aides with vulgar language that it would be embarrassing for Biden if the National Assembly did not approve of something unspecified.
The clip led to speculation and criticism that Yoon was referring to Biden’s pledge to contribute another US$6 billion to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. His mention of the National Assembly was interpreted as a reference to U.S. Congress.
A senior presidential official said he did not pay attention to the remarks and did not remember them as he was following the president from behind.
“He wasn’t speaking publicly on the stage but in passing, and although I don’t know who recorded it and how, I actually think it should be verified,” the official told reporters in New York.

You can read more at the link, but this is just another self inflicted political wound that Yoon’s critics can now dwell on for a couple of news cycles. He is already dealing with another self inflicted wound by showing up too late to London to give condolences at Westminster Abbey prior to the funeral for Queen Elizabeth II.
Let me get this clear.
1. Yoon stated an undeniable fact.
2. Yoon stated an opinion that around 90% of the American public agrees with.
Why is this news?
Why is this news?
It’s news because of a President who is a clueless superstition believing buffon with a wife who is said to be a former room saloon hostess.
So any stupid slip ups like this will of course open a very wide front for criticism and make it to the news.
If you live in Korea and had Korean friends, you would have understood that.
“It’s news because of a President who is a clueless superstition believing buffon with a wife who is said to be a former room saloon hostess.”
You are “said to” like young boys. Should I believe that or would you agree accusations should generally come with some sort of proof?
“If you live in Korea and had Korean friends, you would have understood that.”
That is a good idea. Do you recommend the north one or the south one?
I already made a Korean friend. She doesn’t really know about politics though.
Next time, I will try to get her opinion about trans-pacific cultural influences on derivitive economic interactions in accordance with a financial competency matrix within a structured political conflict-reduction framework in relation to the Yoon administration implementation of trans-national stakeholder directed-guidance mitigation.
Actually her English isn’t so good and about the only thing she can say is “ten dolla’ mo’ get happy ending”.
CH, this is why the chinabot likes to show off his inadequacies:
It seems that GIKorea and the Setnaffarists are so desperate to not have bad words said about the current Korean President and keep him in power that they have decided to take the see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil stance.
All this so that they can get hard ons and wank while looking at photos of the Joint ROK-US Military Exercises.
And while we are on the subject of Setnaffarists, I believe the following articles apply here.
Article 1
The only truth is the world that exists only in the world of Setnaffarism™. Everything else is not true, and should not be believed.
Article 2
Should others present facts that do not fit with the world that exists only in the world of Setnaffarism™ fight vigorously against it. For if the others look over the facts and find them to be true, it will show that the world that exists only in in the world of Setnaffarism™ is not true.
If necessary, call those who present the facts, “leftists” and “Chinese”, if this helps to discredit them.
Jesus never wrote anything in the Bible.
His word was recorded and promoted by others.
You have your first deciple, Setnaffa.
I am sooooo jealous.
I know, CH… It’s like all the incels of China voted their least intellectual comrades to hitch their wagons to my fifteen minutes of stardom.
I wonder if they’ll follow my path through cancer treatments to “glory”, or or if they’ll backslide into mere dialectical materialism like that 19th Century European comedy team, Dietzgen and Kautsky. All that ever produced was failed medical students like Che and fat college girls with mullets like Trigglypuff.
In the meantime, I guess it’s time to go create actual value at my day job. Cheers!
ni hao, cancer-man. Is that the picture of your chemo-therapy session?
