Will Former President Moon Face Charges in Death of Fishery Official?
It looks like the ruling party is intending to continue the trend of putting ex-ROK Presidents in jail:
Following former national security adviser Suh Hoon’s arrest on Saturday for allegedly covering up North Korea’s killing of a South Korean official in the West Sea, clashes between ruling and opposition parties are intensifying, with eyes on whether the investigation will target former President Moon Jae-in.
The prosecution issued an arrest warrant Saturday at around 4:55 a.m. against former national security adviser and spy agency chief Suh after more than 10 hours of questioning, citing the “risk of Suh destroying evidence.” Suh was the first presidential aide of Moon to be arrested among those accused of mishandling of the death of South Korean Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries official Lee Dae-jun in September 2020.
The ruling party and an attorney representing the deceased official’s brother Lee Rae-jin are ramping up calls for justice over the former Moon administration’s labeling of Lee Dae-jun as a South Korean defector to North Korea. This had effectively relieved Seoul of its duty to protect Lee and acquitted Pyeongyang of its summary execution. Meanwhile, evidence that Lee was a defector remains under question.
The ruling People Power Party interim chief Chung Jin-suk said in a statement Saturday on social media that Moon’s statement last Thursday indicated that Moon should be held accountable for the border killing case.

You can read more at the link, but if the ruling party moves forward with trying to jail former President Moon it will pretty much be a guarantee that current President Yoon will be tried for something once the Korean left regains power.
With that all said it would be interesting to find out who in the Moon administration pushed to label the fishery official as a defector in order to not impact their North Korean appeasement strategy.
Yoon will be targeted anyway. That’s how the leftists roll.
All one has to do is look at what is coming out of Twitter to know what leftists truly are.
You mean the p3d0philes getting booted??
Compared to Moon, Yoon has way lot more skeletons in his closet courtesy of his wife and mother-in-law.
It’s going to come out one way or another.
The smart move would have been to leave Moon alone, but it seems that Yoon has to deliver Moon’s head on a platter to his support base who elected him on the hope that he will avenge the arrest and jailing of former Pres. Park.
Moon damaged Korea with his globalist and leftist policies but Korea is better served to encourage him to paint or build houses for the homeless… and then forget him… and break the self-destructive cycle of jailing former presidents.
Obama should never be forgiven for starting the noisy ex-president culture in America
