″Did you hear the siren yesterday morning?″

[이종섭/국방장관]

″Yes.″

[기동민/국회 국방위원]

″Did you hear the sirens? Minister.″

[이종섭/국방장관]

″It happened in the Seoul area, but Baengnyeong Island……″

They were also asked how they were feeling.

[기동민/국회 국방위원]

″What were your thoughts?″

[이종섭/국방장관]

″I think you can come up with several ideas.″

[기동민/국회 국방위원]

″No, as a minister in charge of national defense, it is an absurd text message.″

Criticism came out that the Ministry of National Defense might not be free from responsibility, saying that the people were trembling with anxiety due to the sudden misallocation.

″I understand that North Korea coordinated in advance through the NSC before shooting, but didn’t they coordinate properly?″

[이종섭/국방장관]

″The NSC level was also prepared in advance.″

[김병주/국회 국방위원]

″Is this the shape you prepared for?″

Democratic Party lawmaker Ahn Gyu-baek argued that the Joint Chiefs of Staff used the ambiguous expression of south direction instead of southwest to increase confusion when disseminating the fact of the first launch.

Even following the city of Seoul announced that it had received a request for a warning from the guards and then withdrew it, it was criticized that the government agency was off-beat.

[안규백/국회 국방위원]

″The Seoul Metropolitan Government issued an official warning yesterday. You sent a disaster text message. It was requested by the Subangsa…″

[이종섭/국방장관]

“no. Subangsa did not ask for anything.”

[안규백/국회 국방위원]

″You lied to the city of Seoul?″

Since the city of Seoul is the subject of the mispronunciation, there was also a skit in which lawmakers suddenly appeased the defense minister while questioning him.

[이종섭/국방장관]

″We also discussed in advance, but regarding this part of the appointment to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, so I once once more…″

[배진교/국회 국방위원]

″I am not talking regarding questioning the minister.″

While the government decided to discuss improvement measures following investigating the details of the misalliance once morest the Ministry of Public Administration and Security and the Seoul Metropolitan Government, the Seoul Metropolitan Council began amending related ordinances to include the contents of the disaster when sending disaster text messages.
