l Infiltrate the internal network of the National Election Commission

It was recently reported that the NIS discovered more troubling facts, but did
not publicize this at that time. The (NIS) found records of election fraud by
computer tampering through forensics of a portion of the NEC’s servers during
the joint security inspection, which was exclusively reported by SkyeDaily on 5
December 2024.
The NIS could not investigate, because the Democratic Party of Korea single
handedly passed a law taking away the NIS’s investigative authority during the Moon
Jae-in administration. The discovery was promptly reported to the Office of the
President (President Yoon), but the information was apparently not passed to the
prosecutor’s office. For prosecutors to investigate, they need a search warrant to
gather the evidence, but the court would likely have blocked granting the warrant due
to the conflict of interest between South Korean Supreme Court and the NEC, as
explained earlier.
Meanwhile, the Democratic Party of Korea won the April 2020 and April 2024
General Elections in landslides unheard of in Korean history, effectively gaining
control of the National Assembly and its lawmaking capacity. Yet after both elections,
it did not celebrate its huge victories, but remained solemn-faced and absolutely
mum in response to election fraud allegations. Since then, the DP passed thousands
of laws, including laws criminalizing those who send leaflet balloons to North Korea
and those who mention North Korean special forces’ involvement in Gwangju in May
1980, both these laws suppress freedom of speech, which is guaranteed by the
constitution.
Former Prime Minister Hwang Kyo Ahn said, “The reason why opposition
lawmakers are able to do whatever they want at the National Assembly despite
being substandard is because they were elected through fraudulent elections,” and
added that “The record of election fraud remains intact at the NEC.”
The head of NIS who reported the results of the inspection, Kim Kyu-Hyun, and who
had predicted fraud in April 2024 National Assembly election was fired after issuing
the report on the NEC, for unknown reasons.
