Public apology from ex-first lady Kim Keon Hee following indictment
In a significant development, the special counsel team, led by Min Joong-ki, has been investigating corruption and bribery charges against Kim Keon Hee, the wife of former President Yoon Suk Yeol. The investigation involves her alleged ties to Geon Jin.
The investigation was triggered by an article, originally written in Korean, which was translated with the help of a bilingual reporter, generative AI tools, and later edited by a native English-speaking editor. The article was then divided into chapters for easier reading.
On September 5, 2023, Kim Keon Hee was summoned to court. She left the Seoul Central District Court after attending a warrant hearing. Previously, on Aug. 6, she was seen leaving the office of the special counsel team at the KT Gwanghwamun Building in Jongno District, central Seoul.
During the investigation, Kim Keon Hee was questioned by the special counsel team. It's important to note that all AI-assisted translations are reviewed and refined by the newsroom's team to ensure accuracy.
This is not the first time the special counsel team has questioned a high-profile individual. Previously, PPP Rep. Kweon Seong-dong was grilled by the same team.
