The National Assembly Political Affairs Committee held a plenary session on the followingnoon of the 14th and confirmed the list of 10 witnesses and 2 witnesses to be called to the General National Inspectorate to be held on the 21st and 24th, including this GIO.
The Political Affairs Committee plans to have this GIO attend the general inspection of the non-financial sector to inquire regarding issues related to the detailed execution of the SME win-win support project among the implementation items of Naver’s consent resolution.
The consent and resolution system is a system that promptly closes the case without determining whether it is illegal if a business operator subject to investigation and deliberation by the Fair Trade Commission voluntarily proposes a reasonable corrective measure, such as restoration or damage relief.
Naver and Kakao (then Daum) were the first to apply this system in 2014.
This GIO also appeared as a witness at the National Assembly’s National Assembly’s Science, Technology, Information and Broadcasting Communication Committee audit last year regarding the issue of cooperation with small businesses.
Regarding the Lone Star incident, former Chairman Kim Seung-yu, who made the decision to take over KEB at the time of Hana Financial Group Chairman, was selected as a witness.
