청와대, '5·18이 성역인가' 이병태에 엄중 경고‥"부적절한 처신" (2026.07.04/뉴스데스크/MBC)

Controversy is escalating over the recent incident involving the Baejae High School baseball team, which was disciplined for slogans mocking the May 18 Uprising. Lee Byung-tae, Vice Chairman of the Regulatory Rationalization Committee—a high-ranking official in the current administration appointed through a unified personnel reshuffle—claimed that "May 18 has become a sacred cow." The Blue House issued a public warning, calling it "inappropriate conduct that runs counter to the government's stance." https://imnews.imbc.com/replay/2026/n... #BlueHouse #KangYooJung #LeeByungtae #May18 #SacredCow #BaejaeHighSchool #BaseballTeam #DemocraticPartyOfKorea #MBC #News #NewsDesk #MBCNews #NewsToday ⓒ MBC & iMBC Unauthorized reproduction, redistribution, and use (including AI learning) prohibited
