Jang Dong-hyeon: "Resignation of Kim Yong-beom Is Not the End... 'ETF Independent Counsel' Needed"

People Power Party Representative Jang Dong-hyeon asserted that the resignation of Cheong Wa Dae Policy Chief Kim Yong-beom is not something that can simply end with his stepping down, calling for an independent counsel investigation.

Representative Jang wrote on his social media today, "Cheong Wa Dae Policy Chief Kim Yong-beom has resigned," adding, "He was driven out by the public."

He pointed out, "The single-stock leverage ETF was Kim Yong-beom's creation," and added, "The stock market turned into a gambling den, the public's bank accounts were cleaned out, and only securities firms made money."

Representative Jang asked rhetorically, "Of all people, Kim Yong-beom's son works at a securities firm. Isn't this a clear subject for investigation?"

He further argued, "There is no way Kim Yong-beom did this alone without President Lee Jae-myung knowing," claiming, "Kim Yong-beom is the tail, and President Lee Jae-myung must be the body."

Representative Jang emphasized, "Public damages amount to 54 trillion won," and stressed, "We must at least launch an independent counsel investigation."
