"Is it a house that only sells bread?" An all-time 'meme' was born.

On the 24th, a question on pending issues of the Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee was held at the main building of the National Assembly. Chairman Jeon Jae-soo, Kang Yoo-jung, Kim Yoon-deok, Min Hyung-bae, Park Soo-hyun, Yang Moon-seok, Lee Ki-heon, Jo Gye-won (Democratic Party), Park Jung-ha (Gansa), Kim Seung-soo, Bae Hyun-jin, Shin Dong-wook, Jeong Yeon-wook, Jin Jong-oh, and Kim Jae-won (Cho Kuk Innovation Party) are made up of a total of 16 members.

On this day, questions were asked about the controversy over the selection process of the A national team coach by the Korea Football Association and the construction of the Cheonan Football Center. It was a very unusual situation. Even around the world, lawmakers rarely ask questions about soccer. Technical specialized parts containing tactics, strategies, and future discourse are the unique authority of each sports organization. It was a matter of great public interest. At the Korea Football Association, Chairman Chung Mong-kyu, head coach Hong Myung-bo, technical director of the association Lee Im-saeng, and former chairman of the national team's power reinforcement committee attended as witnesses.

There were also voices of concern. This is because of what happened after the Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games in 2018. At that time, Sun Dong-yeol, head coach of the national baseball team, was called as a witness. A low-quality question followed. However, coach Sun only lamented without getting a proper chance to answer. Coach Sun abruptly put down the baton after questioning at the National Assembly.

The questioning, which opened at 10 a.m., lasted nearly three hours. Except for Jeon, most of the 15 members of the committee asked questions about soccer. After a two-hour recess, additional inquiries were held at 3 p.m.

A matter of concern arose. Member Lee Ki-hyun asked about the interview between director Lee and director Hong. It was about the part where director Lee visited near director Hong's house and conducted an interview on July 5. The commissioner pecked at the place where the two met. Commissioner Lee "What's the name of the bakery?" asked. Director Hong "I'll tell you if it's okay to ask here." Near my house, it is a bakery that is about 5 minutes away. Bakery house" he replied. Commissioner Lee "Is this a house that only sells bread. Did you eat bread or coffee on the spot?" continued the question. Director Hong flatly said "I didn't eat anything." This scene spread quickly through social media. Fans also expressed frustration, saying, `The question went too far.'

'Meme' was not the end here. Member Yang Moon-seok screamed and asked questions without being able to control his emotions. Even when the microphone was turned off after the speech time was over, the voice continued. Even worse, Chairman Jeon Jae-soo took the sanctions and stopped talking.
