According to a report by the Hankook Ilbo, even the chief of staff of the presidential office, Jeong Jin-seok, a five-term lawmaker and vice chairman of the National Assembly, returned after being called out for dinner outside.
In response, Chief Jeong asked Kim Joo-hyun, Senior Secretary for Civil Affairs, about the situation, but Chief Kim was also reportedly unaware of it.
Chief of Staff Chung, who arrived at the presidential office and grasped the situation, reportedly dissuaded President Yoon to do this, but President Yoon responded sternly by saying, "Chief of Staff Chung is out."
Later, when former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun appeared, Chief of Staff Chung shouted at former Minister Kim, "What are you doing?"
However, it is said that former Minister Kim rather stared at Director Chung and responded, saying, "We have to be disciplined."
