Critics point out that, unlike previous explanations characterizing it as official activity, the Blue House mentioned "private activity" regarding expense processing and has failed to disclose actual payment records, fueling suspicions.
According to the National Audit response materials submitted to the Blue House and obtained by Rep. Chun Ha-ram of the Reform Party, a member of the National Assembly Steering Committee, on the 29th, the Blue House responded to an inquiry regarding "which accounting category is used for expenses when the President goes golfing at places like Taereung CC" by stating, "Expenses related to the President's private activities are borne personally."
