Southeast Asia Information Port (www.dnyxxg.com) – On November 5th local time, the defense team for Kim Geon-hee, wife of former South Korean President Yoon Seok-youl, released a statement saying that Kim admitted to receiving designer handbags but denied accepting any requests for favors.
The report stated that Kim Geon-hee's defense team claimed that she was not involved in any form of request or exchange of benefits during the process of receiving the designer handbags.
The defense team stated that Kim initially refused the items but was eventually persuaded. She acknowledged her mistake and therefore did not use the items, returning them long ago.
Kim Geon-hee's side also maintained that she did not receive any requests for favors as alleged by the "Kim Geon-hee Special Prosecutor's Team," and that the receipt of the items was unrelated to her specific duties as president.
