The Roh Hoe-chan Foundation held the 5th Roh Hoe-chan Award ceremony at Jeon Tae-il Memorial Hall in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 21st and presented a special award to Colonel Park

The foundation said, “Colonel Park met with justice and courage in the hard reality that is hard to break like a rock and gave hope to our society.” I was moved by the fact that I represented the people’s right to know by telling the world the truth that power and authority are hiding.”

On this day, Colonel Park expressed his acceptance speech and said, “I’m a defendant on trial in a military court, and on one side, I’m a winner of such an award, and I’m living in this era, which is funny and sad.”

Colonel Park said, “I want to be proud that I and the rest of the winners are very noble people who take the legally and institutionally wrong parts of our society and the country to the court of history,” adding, “I will give this award a chance to always repeat my mind that is important.”

Later in the order, Colonel Park said, “I want to talk about why I am fighting for my everything on the death of a soldier.”

There are three main reasons why Colonel Park stated. First, Colonel Park said, “The value of life is the same as the rank or general of former Corporal Lee Byung-choo.” “Although it is the value of a soldier’s life, I think it should be taken as heavy as the weight of the earth,” he said. “That’s why I made a commitment to hold those responsible for your death accountable so that there is no injustice left in your death in front of the body of Corporal Chae.”

Colonel Park introduced an anecdote in which he visited Mr. Chae’s grandfather last year and explained the results of the investigation himself, saying, “I can’t stop this fight because I promised my grandfather that I would carry out the results for those responsible for Mr. Chae’s death as a result of the investigation.”

Finally, Colonel Park said, “Since the Republic of Korea is a country with a duty of national defense, the unfair and sad death of Corporal Chae can happen to all my family members and relatives,” adding, “The fight cannot be stopped because it is justice to take responsibility for the truth of the case and the person responsible is the way to prevent a second accident.”

Colonel Park revealed that there was external pressure from the Ministry of National Defense and the presidential office during the investigation into the accident of Corporal Chae, a Marine who died in July last year while searching for missing persons affected by heavy rain

Colonel Park considered Lim Sung-keun’s unreasonable order as the cause of the accident and transferred the results of the incident, which included Lim as a suspect, to the police on August 2 of the same year, but the Ministry of National Defense immediately retrieved the incident records and dismissed Colonel Park from his post

The military prosecution indicted Colonel Park without detention on charges of protest and other charges, saying that former Defense Minister Lee Jong-seop violated the order to hold back the case, which was delivered through Marine Corps Commander Kim Kye-hwan
