The People Power Party once again stirs controversy by calling for the disclosure of the 5·18 meritorious persons list

The list of 5·18 meritorious persons is subject to non-disclosure under the Official Information Disclosure Act and the Personal Information Protection Act. The same applies to 4·19 meritorious persons and victims of Agent Orange in Vietnam. The courts have also ruled that non-disclosure is lawful, stating that disclosing the 5·18 meritorious persons list constitutes an invasion of privacy. The former Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs stated that online posts claiming 5·18 meritorious persons enjoy various privileges are all false. However, as of 2019, 73 members of the 5·18 martial law forces, who were registered as national meritorious persons despite massacring the citizens of Gwangju, received an average of more than five times more in compensation (approximately 16.423 billion KRW) per person than 5·18 meritorious persons.
If there were no issue with disclosing it, they would have disclosed it during the Lee Myung-bak, Park Geun-hye, or Yoon Suk-yeol administrations... I don't know why they are making such a fuss. *Sigh*
