In a recent scandal involving former president Yoon Suk-yeol, key figure Myung Taek-gyun is accused of receiving classified documents about the development plan for Changwon National Industrial Complex (Changwon-gukgasaandan) from city officials even before it was officially announced. Myung allegedly facilitated site investigations and influenced decision-making, raising suspicions about his ties to Yoon and his wife. The documents obtained by Hankyoreh21 include sensitive information about the project’s progress and development plans.
Myung’s involvement extended to lobbying various officials and orchestrating the signing of a petition to designate Changwon-gukgasaandan 2.0, further hinting at his vested interests in real estate development in the area. Myung’s close associate, gang Hyegyeong, confirmed his directives and influence in the process.
As investigations unfold, it becomes apparent that Myung’s actions were driven by personal gain, prompting the launch of a probe by Changwon prosecutors. Myung’s ties to real estate dealings in the planned industrial complex area raise concerns about corruption and abuse of power.
For further developments on this unfolding scandal, stay tuned as more details emerge from ongoing investigations.
