Cheong Wa Dae is stunned and puzzled as a number of former or current aides of President Moon Jae-in are emerging as candidates for next year's presidential election ― but now for the conservative opposition bloc.
Former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-youl and current Board of Audit and Inspection (BAI) Chairman Choi Jae-hyeong are expected to announce their presidential bids this week. They had all been named to their positions by Moon, but have been receiving calls from the conservative opposition bloc after locking horns with the administration over investigating allegations unfavorable to the Moon government.
