Regarding the Hankyoreh’s report that Kim Haeng, a candidate for Minister of Gender Equality and Family, sold his spouse’s ‘Social News’ (Wikitree operator) stocks to his spouse’s friend A in 2013 when he was appointed Blue House spokesperson, and then bought them back at the same price, “(stocks) He refuted, “The person who acquired it is another co-founder who has been with the company since its establishment.” However, she revealed that even company employees “heard for the first time that Mr. A is a co-founder,” raising controversy over false explanations. Candidate Kim responded to the Hankyoreh report that morning that he may have parked stocks to a friend of Candidate Kim’s spouse of 50 years, saying, “Mr. He said. He issued a statement that day, saying, “In 2013, my family’s stocks were purchased by co-founder B (Mr. Gong Hoon-ui, as reported), and the rest were purchased by another co-founder, A, and my older sister-in-law.” Regarding the purchase of stocks from Mr. A and his sister-in-law in 2018, he dismissed suspicions of ‘stock parking’ (leaving stocks with a third party), saying, “At a time when we were contemplating the decision to close the business, we decided to purchase the entire stock so that there would be no damage to shareholders.” During this process, Candidate Kim defined the Hankyoreh’s verified reporting as “fake news with holes in it” and criticized it for “completely destroying the media ecosystem.” Mr. A, who claimed that Candidate Kim was a co-founder, held Social News stocks (4,000 shares) even before acquiring stocks (22,000 shares) from Candidate Kim’s spouse in 2013. However, it is less than the shares held by Candidate Kim’s daughter (7,000 shares). Candidate Kim’s explanation that Mr. Candidate Kim disclosed this data to reporters from the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family when controversy over stock parking arose following selling his spouse’s stocks to his sister-in-law. Here, there was only one shareholder disclosed as a co-founder (in terms of shareholding ratio, Mr. Gong Hoon-ui). It’s just that. Generally, co-founders are registered in the corporate register as internal directors, etc. However, unlike Candidate Kim and Mr. Gong, who are listed as inside directors, Mr. A’s name cannot be found in the social news corporation registration. Additionally, employees who worked at Wikitree, operated by Social News, told the Hankyoreh on this day, “This is the first time I have heard that Mr. A is a co-founder,” and “I don’t even know his face.” Reporter Joo-bin Lee yes@hani.co.kr
