매국노 賣國奴 Traitor!

President Yoon portrayed as Lee Won-yong, the infamous traitor of Eulsa, who sold his country out to Japan.

The leaked report alleging an electronic intercept of a conversation inside the South Korean Presidential Office is very damaging to the Yoon Suk-yeol administration. It basically reveals an ability to blackmail the Yoon administration to force the South Korean executive office to do anything the US and Japan want. Yoon is corrupt and very unpopular. He has ruined the administration of justice in South Korea, to enrich and protect family and cronies. He abuses the powers of prosecutors and police to persecute his political opposition, rivals and critics.

He'd better send his warships to go with the US and Japanese navies in the so called tri-lateral alliance against China or else. There are potentially many other recorded conversations of Yoon administration officials, and Yoon family members, and perhaps Yoon himself which, if leaked, would destroy his administration overnight. Think of Yoon's (hatchet man) Justice Minister Han Dong-hun's Iphone which was seized under a warrant and supposedly couldn't be decrypted. There are other recordings like this out there which if allowed in court, would literally bring down the obsequious Yoon and his cadre of prosecutors many of whom now direct major government ministries and departments. The Presidential Office fired the two advisors involved in the conversation who allegedly had reservations about sending artillery shells to Ukraine. This demonstrates the level of control the US (and by extension Japan) are exerting on South Korea. The Ukraine artillery shell shipment issue is really collateral. The point is the US can force Yoon and his top advisors to do anything they want. So his administration's humiliating foreign policy is being compared at home to the "traitors of Eulsa" who submitted to Japanese hegemony in 1905. The Yoon administration and the deputy national security advisor responsible for the March purge of the two former presidential advisors claim the document is a forgery in a futile attempt to defuse the domestic uproar concerning the alleged intercept.
