This video may be censored at some point–e.g., video access denial, video removal, the infamous “yellow dollar sign” that prevents the YouTuber from earning income, etc.–because these censorship activities have happened to other videos that do not reflect the same political views as the Moon administration and the ruling party.  The “yellow dollar sign” issue was not as wide-spread until Moon appointed Han Sang-hyeok (한상혁) as the new Chairman of the Korea Communications Commission (KCC) in August 2019. The Blue House and the ruling party have tried to censor YouTube videos, but it appears to have stepped up after Han became the KCC Chair, a position that reports directly to the president.  Han vowed to fight “fake news,” which he has not defined, but the tendency of the Moon administration and the ruling party is to label any criticism of the Moon administration or different political views as “fake news.” Han stated “fake news does not get the protection of freedom of speech.”  

 

This is not the first time Moon Jae-in has been accused of being a spy.  On February 23, 2017, citizens Choi Dae-jip (최대집) and Park Sung-hyeon (박성현) filed charges with the Prosecutor-General’s Office, asking them to investigate Moon and 14 others.  They accused Moon Jae-in, then the leader of Deobureo Minjoo Party (Democratic Party of Korea), of espionage, abetting espionage, instigating a rebellion, treason-aiding the enemy (이적죄), treason-joining with the enemy to destroy the country (여적죄), and violating the National Security Law.

Among the 14 charged is Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon (박원순), who was accused of abetting espionage, instigating a rebellion, and violating the National Security Law.

 

In September 2018, Doe Tae-woo, a lawyer, filed a charge against Moon Jae-in for the crime of treason-joining with the enemy to destroy the country (여적죄).  Doe pointed out that by signing the inter-Korea Military Agreement of September 2018, which is designed to implement the Panmunjeom Declaration of April 2018, Moon violated the Constitution, specifically the duty of territorial preservation (Article 66, Section 2) and the duty of national security (Article 69).  He further explained that by abandoning the existing boundary of the Northern Limit Line and giving the territorial waters to the enemy, Moon committed acts hostile to the Republic of Korea, which is treason.
