On the 18th, KBS posted an answer to an article titled 「Reveal the truth about deleting the KBS Min Hee-jin interview report」 on the petition bulletin board for viewers on its official website.
KBS said, `I would like to correct and explain the part of the petition that is different from the facts or that may be misunderstood.'
He then interviewed Min Hee-jin's official, not Min Hee-jin, in relation to the mention of the title of the petition 'Min Hee-jin interview report'"'KBS interviewed Min Hee-jin' asked other media to report the correction, and the media accepted it and revised the article", he explained.
Regarding the point of deletion of the article "KBS covered content different from what was reported earlier by another official from Min Hee-jin after the video was released on YouTube. After discussions among reporters, the existing article was decided to be deleted in consideration of conflicting contents. Considering that the positions are different even among the officials, we have taken measures to delete them in accordance with the KBS press headquarters guidelines.
Also "If you explain the reason why the petitioner mentioned the relevance of some community articles about the deletion of the article, KBS's deletion of the article has nothing to do with the community articles."KBS News reports on this issue, which began in April 2024, in chronological order of occurrence of the article." he explained.
Finally, KBS's expression of KBS as a public relations channel and public relations agent for a specific person stems from misunderstanding among viewers and officials. KBS has been reporting on both sides in an open manner regarding this issue"KBS promises to continue to report on major issues in our society, including this one, according to standards such as objectivity and fairness."," he added.

Afterwards, the petitioner posted a message on the petition bulletin board on KBS's official website late last month and mentioned the contents, pointing out that "in the case of deleting an already reported article, the article was deleted without explanation, and what happened when it was pointed out in some communities that Min Hee-jin implied a violation of his obligation to not report and recognize actions that could damage the company even though he is an in-house director." He then demanded that "I ask you to take appropriate answers and corresponding actions on why you deleted the article." The petition received the consent of about 2,657 people.
Hereinafter, KBS's full answer
Thank you for your interest in KBS News.
First of all, I would like to correct and explain the wrong or misleading part of the petition posted by the petitioner.
First, the petitioner mentions 'Min Hee-jin interview report' in the title of the petition, which is understood to be claiming that "KBS interviewed Min Hee-jin", but this is not true.
KBS interviewed Min Hee-jin, not Min Hee-jin.
In this regard, KBS demanded a correction report from a media outlet that expressed differently from the fact that `KBS interviewed Min Hee-jin.' The media in question accepted KBS's request for a correction report and revised the article
Next, I will explain about the part where the petitioner pointed out that he deleted the article without explanation.
After the video was released on YouTube, KBS covered something different from what was reported earlier from another official from Min Hee-jin. After discussions among reporters, we decided to delete the existing article in consideration of conflicting contents. Considering that the positions of the officials are different, the government has taken measures to delete them in accordance with the KBS news bureau guidelines.
In addition, to explain the petitioner's mention of the relevance of some community posts regarding the reason for the deletion of the article, KBS's deletion of the article has nothing to do with the community's post. KBS News is reporting on this issue, which began in April 2024, in the order of the time of the article.
Lastly, I think the part that expressed KBS as a public relations window and public relations agent for a specific person is due to misunderstanding from some viewers and officials. And I would like to inform you that KBS has been reporting and reporting on either side in an open manner regarding this issue.
KBS promises to continue to report on major issues in our society, including this one, based on standards such as objectivity and fairness in an uncomfortable and unfair manner. Thank you.
