The
KOC
immediately
responded
with
a
press
release.
Despite
the
state
affairs
manipulation
that
occurred
in
the
process
of
integrating
the
National
Sports
Association
and
the
Korean
Sports
Association
in
2016,
athletes,
athletes,
and
leaders
from
cities
and
provinces,
sports
associations,
etc.
have
overcome
all
these
difficulties.
In
particular,
13
gold
medals,
10
silver
medals,
and
9
bronze
medals
were
recorded
at
the
Paris
Summer
Olympics.
Three
months
after
the
Paris
Olympics,
the
Ministry
of
Culture,
Sports
and
Tourism
and
the
National
Assembly's
Culture,
Sports
and
Tourism
Committee
held
hearings,
parliamentary
inspection,
on-site
inspection
of
the
Cabinet
Office,
and
the
Board
of
Audit
and
Inspection
at
the
same
time.
Members
are
tired
of
being
repeatedly
investigated
by
various
organizations
for
the
same
matter,
and
some
employees
are
complaining
of
panic.
As
a
result,
I
believe
there
may
be
some
deficiencies
in
the
request
for
data
submission
from
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination"We
sincerely
ask
for
a
more
rigorous
re-investigation
of
all
allegations
of
misconduct
pointed
out
by
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination
today,
such
as
the
operation
of
the
observation
team
related
to
the
Paris
Olympics
and
the
demand
for
goods
sponsorship
(money
and
goods)."
"For
your
information,
today's
announcement
by
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination
was
made
two
days
before
the
re-election
review
of
the
heads
of
sports
organizations,
including
Lee
Ki-heung,
chairman
of
the
Korea
Sports
Council,
and
we
cannot

the
suspicion
that
it
was
illegal
election
intervention."
has
a
line
on
it.
Meanwhile,
whether
Lee
Ki-heung,
who
is
seeking
a
third
term
as
chairman
of
the
Korea
Sports
Council,
will
be
approved
for
a
second
term
will
be
decided
at
the
Korea
Sports
Fair
Committee
(Chairman
Kim
Byung-chul)
on
the
12th.
A
preliminary
review
was
unanimously
passed
by
the
subcommittee
on
the
4th,
and
a
general
meeting
on
the
12th
will
conclude
whether
to
serve
a
second
term.
The
FTC
consists
of
one
chairman,
three
or
less
vice-chairmen,
and
15
or
less
members,
and
agendas
excluding
disciplinary
action
will
be
decided
with
a

of
the

present
in

The
following
is
the
full
text
of
the
position
of
the
Korean
Sports
Council
related
to
the
results
of
the
inspection
by
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination.
The
Korean
Sport
&
Olympic
Committee
today
declares
that
it
cannot
agree
with
the
announcement
of
the
results
of
the
government
affairs
coordination
office's
irregularities
against
our
society.
Despite
the
state
affairs
manipulation
that
occurred
in
the
process
of
integrating
the
National
Sports
Association
and
the
Korean
Sports
Association
in
2016,
sportsmen
such
as
provincial
sports
associations,
sports
organizations,
athletes,
and
leaders
have
overcome
all
these
difficulties
by
becoming
one
team.
In
particular,
the
Paris
Summer
Olympics
were
the
best
ever
with
13
gold
medals,
10
silver
medals,
and
9
bronze
medals.
Three
months
after
the
Paris
Olympics,
the
Korean
Sports
and
Tourism
Commission
has
received
hearings,
parliamentary
audits,
on-site
investigations
into
the
Cabinet
Office,
and
audits
by
the
Board
of
Audit
and
Inspection.
In
the
process,
members
of
the
Korea
Sports
Council
are
tired
of
fatigue
as
they
are
repeatedly
investigated
by
multiple
organizations
for
the
same
content,
and
some
employees
complain
of
panic.
Accordingly,
I
think
there
may
be
insufficient
parts
in
the
request
for
data
submission
by
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination.
The
Korean
Olympic
Committee
earnestly
requests
a
more
rigorous
re-investigation
of
all
the
allegations
of
misconduct
pointed
out
by
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination
today,
including
the
operation
of
the
observation
team
related
to
the
Paris
Olympics
and
the
demand
for
the
sponsorship
of
goods
(money
and
goods),
and
promises
to
the
people
that
they
will
cooperate
with
any
investigation
in
the
future.
※
For
reference,
today's
announcement
by
the
Office
for
Government
Policy
Coordination
was
made
two
days
before
the
second
term
review
of
the
heads
of
sports
organizations,
including
Lee
Ki-heung,
chairman
of
the
Korea
Sports
Council,
and
it
is
impossible
to
erase
doubts
that
it
is
illegal
election
intervention.
