In the 2021 representative election of South Korea's largest opposition party, the Democratic Party of Korea (DP), the camp of Song Young-gil, the former representative of South Korea's Democratic Party (DP), who was arrested and indicted for being involved in illegal cash provision aimed at winning the election, has announced that
At that time, it was learned that other candidates' camps were also giving money and goods to members of the same party to gain support, and in order to counter that, they handed over envelopes of cash.
According to a public complaint filed by South Korea's Ministry of Justice to the office of ruling party People's Power member Chun Ju-hye, Song's camp received support from three candidates in late April 2021.
As the gap in ownership rates narrows, we have received information that rival candidates' camps are handing out around 3 million won (approximately 330,000 yen) to Democratic Party members. In response to this, the Song camp solidified its support base.
He reportedly decided to provide cash to members of the same party in order to help him. The indictment states, ``Under these circumstances, independent lawmaker Yoon Kwang-seok (Yun Kwan-seok) tried to become a member of the Democratic Party's National Assembly in the camp of a competing candidate.
"We have received information that they are offering money and goods to appeal for support," he said.

"I have come to realize that there is a need for this," he said. At the time, Mr. Song's side said, ``Isn't our situation a little unstable right now?According to rumors, rival candidate camps are sending cash envelopes to members of Congress.''
They say they will give it to you, but we should also talk and come up with countermeasures. Finally, it is understood that discussions such as ``Maybe we should give some to the members of Congress'' were heard.
According to the public complaint, Rep. Yoon held a meeting called a ``planning meeting'' at the National Assembly and told the attendees, ``The rival candidate's camp is handing out around 3 million won to members.''
Therefore, our camp needs to give that amount of money to members of Congress.'' Then, he proposed offering money and goods to a member of the Diet belonging to the same party, and offered cash to a member of the same party.
I made a plan. With perfect timing, Mr. Song also recognized the need to provide cash to National Assembly members through former aide Park Yong-soo and others, and transferred the "external campaign funds" kept by former aide Park Yong-soo.
It was revealed that the government had approved the use of "money" to prepare funds. On April 28, 2021, Rep. Yoon gave 3 million won each to the attendees of the ``Meeting of National Assembly Members,'' a meeting to support Mr. Song at the National Assembly.
I handed over 10 envelopes containing cash. However, when some participants did not participate and the plan was disrupted, they asked Song's campaign camp to prepare additional funds.
In response, former Park aide prepared 10 additional envelopes containing 3 million won each and placed them in a paper bag.
I handed it over to former vice-general Jeong Geun. According to the prosecutor's investigation, he then handed it to Rep. Yun at the campaign office. Immediately after Congressman Yoon received this, he met with Song at the candidate's office in the same building.
Prosecutors said in the public complaint that they met with him, placed a paper bag containing 10 cash envelopes on the table, and said he would ``properly hand it over to the members of Congress.''
On the other hand, the prosecution announced that the ``Peace and Mokko Saneun (Lifestyle) Issues Research Institute'' has been in charge since January 2020 of the ``unification plan'' project, which has a unique purpose.
He pointed out that he did not conduct any research or other activities, and instead hired people to assist Mr. Song in his political activities, effectively assisting Mr. Song in his political activities.
In August of that year, the Diet member's office assistants and the institute held a joint workshop for two days and one night.
. After that, they created a Telegram messenger chat room with members of the Diet's office and the institute, and shared information such as Mr. Song's schedule, press materials, and materials posted on SNS.

After its reorganization, the institute's advisory team decided to hold its first meeting at the election office in Gyeyang-gu, Incheon, where Song is preparing to run for the 21st National Assembly election. The advisory group made up of businessmen and others was the Song Dynasty's National Assembly.
It was revealed that he visited the election office during the parliamentary election and supported Song's election campaign. Mr. Song completely denies the charges and plans to plead his innocence in court.
