[사건현장] 홍명보 사퇴에도 비난 여론 확산…수사는? / 연합뉴스TV (YonhapnewsTV)

[Guest: Attorney Son Soo-ho] As the national soccer team returned home early this morning after receiving a dismal report card of group stage elimination at the CONCACAF World Cup, attention is once again focused on the investigation into allegations of improper intervention regarding the appointment of Coach Hong Myung-bo, which has been at a standstill for two years. Meanwhile, due to a power outage in the Gangnam area of ​​Seoul yesterday, a computer system failure occurred at Gangnam Severance Hospital, forcing some patients to turn away without receiving treatment. We will examine today's major incidents and accidents with Attorney Son Soo-ho. [Question 1] It was around 3:50 AM today, wasn't it? The national soccer team, including Coach Hong Myung-bo, returned home. While Coach Hong remained silent in the face of a barrage of questions from reporters, he did not bow his head. Even though it was early morning, shouts and jeers poured out from the fans who had swarmed the airport. Coach Hong Myung-bo left the scene amidst a shower of jeers! It was the first time since the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup that a separate homecoming ceremony was not held. Was this decision made in consideration of concerns regarding various safety accidents? [Question 2] As the shock of failing to advance to the Round of 32 continues, the police investigation into allegations of improper intervention by Chairman Chung Mong-kyu during the process of appointing Coach Hong Myung-bo is also being re-examined. The investigation has been at a standstill for two years now. Why is there no progress? [Question 2-1] Even if procedural flaws in the coach appointment are acknowledged, does that not immediately lead to criminal punishment? [Question 3] However, now that both individuals at the center of the allegations have stepped down, some are raising questions about whether there is any practical benefit in continuing the investigation. [Question 4] Next is a shocking accident that occurred at a hospital. Yesterday, a power outage in the Gangnam area of ​​Seoul paralyzed the computer systems at Gangnam Severance Hospital, causing chaos across the medical field, including registration, treatment, and examinations. The hospital eventually issued a 'Code White.' Under what circumstances is this measure issued? [Question 4-1] Every hospital likely has an emergency manual. Although the power outage lasted only about a minute, the computer system failure continued for over an hour, prolonging the chaos. As a tertiary general hospital, do they not have a legal or managerial obligation to prepare for a shutdown situation? [Question 5] However, this power outage is known to have been caused by the aftermath of an accident at a nearby substation, rather than an internal hospital issue. In this case, if patients suffered damages, who bears the legal responsibility? [Question 5-1] Since some patients traveled from provincial areas, they also experienced various inconveniences. I am curious whether patients can receive compensation for damages, and if so, who can be held accountable. [Question 6] Next is news regarding singer Kim Ho-joong, who was released on parole at 10 a.m. today. His full release date was originally set for this coming November, but he is returning to society five months early after passing the parole review. Fans gathered in front of the prison today... but he quickly left the scene while avoiding media exposure as much as possible. Was he conscious of the controversy? [Question 7] Since Kim Ho-joong's drunk driving hit-and-run incident sparked such intense public outrage, opinions are divided regarding whether this parole ruling is truly appropriate. [Question 8] With Kim Ho-joong's release on parole, attention is also focused on whether he will return to the entertainment industry. In particular, Mr. Kim expressed his determination to return through his official fan cafe last April, stating, "I will get back on my feet no matter what." Is it possible to engage in profit-making activities during the parole period? [Question 9] This is a truly bitter incident. This incident occurred during the National High School Baseball Weekend League Championship. During the game between Gwangju Jeil High School and Baejae High School, Baejae High School's cheering slogans became embroiled in a controversy regarding regional disparagement. What exactly were the contents of those slogans? [Question 10] As the controversy spread, Baejae High School posted an official apology. However, another controversy has arisen because phrases suspected to have been written by AI remained intact in the apology. [Question 11] Consequently, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education launched an investigation, and the Korea Baseball Softball Association plans to convene its Sports Ethics Committee to deliberate on disciplinary action. I am curious whether this cheering slogan controversy should be viewed simply as excessive cheering, or if ...
