The spouse of President Yoon Suk Yeol, Kim Keon Hee, is reportedly not expected to accompany him on a foreign trip scheduled for this month.
A senior official from the presidential office explained on the 7th that Mrs. Kim would not be participating in the trip.
During a press conference that day, President Yoon addressed questions regarding Mrs. Kim’s public activities, stating, “Public activities are ultimately seen by the public, so if the public likes it, we do it, and if they don’t, we shouldn’t.” He added, “Taking current public opinion into consideration, except for activities judged necessary by myself and my aides for diplomatic norms and national interest, we’ve essentially suspended them and will continue this approach.”
Additionally, it has been reported that President Yoon and Mrs. Kim plan to change their personal phone numbers soon.
In the press conference, President Yoon mentioned, “Even after becoming president, I’ve been told to change the phone I used as a prosecutor. While I should have replaced it with a protocol phone during my presidency, not having done so is fundamentally my fault.” He further stated that measures would be taken to minimize related risks.
