In a recent interview, Gyeonggi Province Governor Kim Dong-yeon expressed his disdain for Jeon Han-gil, a far-right figure and former Korean history lecturer, who attempted to organize a rally under the deceptive premise of celebrating a significant historical event. At the center of the controversy is Jeon's application to hold a performance related to 'Yoon Again,' which Kim vehemently declared was in direct violation of the principles of the March 1st movement. Kim asserted that Jeon's claims about the event being a 'pure family cultural performance' were unfounded, labeling Jeon's actions as dangerously misleading and detrimental to societal norms.

Governor Kim Dong-yeon further stated that Jeon's pursuit of the event was a clear case of distorting the essence of the March 1st movement, which commemorates Korea's fight for independence. He emphasized that allowing such an event would undermine the spirit of this crucial historical celebration, and reiterated that Jeon's attempts to sidestep public sentiment would not be tolerated. Highlighting the gravity of the situation, he declared Jeon to be a representative of forces harming Korean society, indicating a broader concern about the impact of extremist ideology on the political landscape.

The reactions to the cancellation of the event, particularly Jeon's defiance and his challenge to Kim's authority, have sparked further discussions about political responsibility and the extent to which public figures must engage with radical viewpoints. Kim concluded by cautioning that the ongoing operations of such divisive forces in politics would eventually be met with public accountability, urging the political leadership of the opposition party to be mindful of their proximity to these extreme ideologies and the consequences that might arise from it.
