Sparking controversy
Ko Seong-guk, a conservative YouTube channel operator and current affairs critic, was selected as the host of KBS1 radio's 'Blitz Current Affairs', sparking controversy.
KBS Headquarters, the media union of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions, said in a statement on the 16th, "It is questionable whether Mr. Ko's topicality is helpful to the fairness and competitiveness of KBS programs," and added, "Mr. Ko has a history of dropping out as a radio host in the past due to issues of political bias. “There is,” he pointed out.
In fact, Mr. Ko made comments defending President Yoon Seok-yeol on his YouTube channel.
In addition, many videos supporting President Yoon were uploaded with titles such as 'Opposition to Special Prosecutor Chae Sang-byeong', 'Praise for President Yoon's press conference', and 'Will we lose President Yoon Seok-yeol like Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye?'
