Opposition leader heads to prosecution

Lee Jae-myung (R), leader of the main opposition Democratic Party, who has been staging a hunger strike since Aug. 31, 2023, leaves the National Assembly in Seoul for the Suwon District Prosecution in Suwon, 30 kilometers south of Seoul, on Sept. 12. He will undergo a probe into allegations that he was involved in illegal money transfers by Ssangbangwool Group, an underwear manufacturer, to North Korea in return for his unrealized visit to Pyongyang in 2019, when he was the Gyeonggi Province governor.
