In short
Allegations of illegal surveillance of civilians during the Moon Jae-in administration resurfaced at the parliamentary audit.
Lee Heon-uk, president of Korea Real Estate Board, said he would conduct a fact-finding investigation after the audit concludes.
The opposition demanded that investigation results be revealed before the comprehensive audit on the 23rd.
