Director Kim Hyun-tae posted a message encouraging reports of corruption within the military via social media.

On the 8th, former Commander of the 707th Special Mission Battalion of the Special Warfare Command, Kim Hyun-tae, conveyed his sincere message to soldiers in a Facebook post titled "A Message to the Respected and Beloved Soldiers." 

Martial Law Can Never Be Treason

Director Kim, who recently began his social media activities, confessed, "I, who distrusted YouTube and had no interest in political news, came to know the truth amidst the whirlwind of martial law and witnessed how precarious South Korea's situation is."

He candidly conveyed the current situation, stating that △ the invisible ideological war began long ago, △ the legacy media is largely left-leaning, centered around the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) receiving directives from North Korea, and △ many citizens are brainwashed by fake news and manipulated by their propaganda and incitement.

He explained that although he initially didn't believe it, he became convinced after hearing the voices of truth from patriotic YouTubers and meeting patriotic citizens who take to the streets every day to protect a free and democratic South Korea.

"Soldiers and military families! President Yoon Suk-yeol's martial law can never be treason."

Director Kim appealed, stating, "At a critical moment when liberal democracy is being destroyed by anti-state forces, the President had no choice but to select 'martial law,' the inherent authority of the President under Article 77 of the Constitution. Despite this, the regime was usurped through the meticulous treasonous plot of the treason fabricators, the judiciary has collapsed, and our military is being politicized, heading towards national ruin."

He also criticized, "There is ample evidence of fraudulent elections, and the actions of anti-state forces that do not hesitate to implement pro-China and pro-North Korea leftist policies and the eight evil laws are acts of oppression and destruction of the rule of law, acting above the law, and are becoming similar to North Korea's Communist Party, our primary enemy."

He added that he himself "has endured this far, facing numerous fake news attacks, threats, and attempts at persuasion," and pleaded, "As the people's army, you must stand on the side of the people, not power."

Military Punishes Those Who Speak Truth for Violating Political Neutrality

"Is the current military, which shackles us with 'political neutrality' and punishes those who speak the truth for 'violating political neutrality,' truly a normal military!"

Director Kim emphasized that instead of hiding behind the false shield of 'political neutrality,' it is time to practice 'dedication to country and duty as a soldier' and 'recognizing righteousness and acting with courage to fulfill duty.' 

He further proclaimed that "Fairness and common sense, justice and the rule of law are disappearing from South Korea," and that it is time to take the difficult path of justice rather than the easy path of injustice for the sake of 'my life for my country.'"

He also strongly criticized internal military issues.

He stated that the military is being politicized by selecting only those who acknowledge 'martial law as treason' as generals, and that some politically motivated officers, desperate for promotion, are being used as collaborators, thereby destroying the basic order and purpose of our military.

"I understand your positions. However, please summon your courage and help me. I want to be the voice of you and our military to protect the collapsing South Korea and our military."

He stated that he would inform the public of the truth himself and requested that any illegal orders and actions occurring within the military be reported via Naver Mail (yakkoo567@naver.com) and Google Mail (kimmirpapa@gmail.com). He also promised to ensure the thorough security of informants to prevent their personal safety from being threatened.

Director Kim urged, "Truth is the only way to save South Korea from anti-state forces," and pleaded for any opinions and information to be reported.

He also recommended watching the movie '2024.12.03. That Day (Fabricated Treason, Hidden Truth),' which deals with the issue of fraudulent elections.

He shared that "The reality of the global fraudulent election cartel, which began with the arrest of Venezuela's Maduro, is being revealed one by one by U.S. President Donald Trump," and that "It has been revealed that the South Korean National Election Commission has been a pillar of fraudulent elections."

Furthermore, he claimed, "The basis asserted by treason fabricator Moon Hyung-bae in the impeachment trial has been destroyed by Han Duck-soo's false testimony, Hong Jang-won's worm memo, and Jo Ji-ho's reiteration," adding, "Currently, only Commander Kwak Jong-geun's testimony remains, but even that has lost its credibility and is being shattered by the disclosure of call times."

He declared, "We will reveal the truth and eradicate the treason fabricators and anti-state forces," and shared an article by lawyer Choi Geo-hoon titled "Let's Bring Kwak Jong-geun into the World of Truth!"

The following is the article by lawyer Choi Geo-hoon.

Let's Bring Kwak Jong-geun into the World of Truth Now

1. "Drag the National Assembly members out of the plenary chamber!"

Did former President Yoon Suk-yeol say this to former Special Warfare Commander Kwak Jong-geun? At this point, many people are well aware that this did not happen.

However, a considerable number of people still believe it did, and the treason trial has been contested over the truth of this matter, with a verdict now pending.

2. Witnesses: Two people, Kwak Jong-geun and Kim Hyun-tae

The individuals who know the truth regarding the above matter are Kwak Jong-geun and Kim Hyun-tae, former commander of the 707th. These two are decisive witnesses to this fact. Therefore, Democratic Party figures clung to these two.

It was absolutely necessary for these two to testify as the Democratic Party figures demanded. They could have become decisive witnesses to drive the narrative of treason.

3. Kim Hyun-tae was dismissed.

Before his dismissal, he began speaking the truth at some point. As a result, he was dismissed. After his dismissal, he has been speaking the truth more concretely and fighting in earnest. He is exposing the truth of the fabricated treason.

Listening to him, one can vividly sense the Democratic Party's manipulation. Therefore, we should pay attention to his words.

The Democratic Party has lost far more than it gained by dismissing Kim Hyun-tae. As Kim Hyun-tae expressed, the reality of the treason fabricators will be revealed more clearly.

4. The problem is Kwak Jong-geun.

Kwak Jong-geun has been struggling to survive. As a result, he was not dismissed but rather discharged. Did he struggle this much to avoid dismissal and instead be discharged?

He still has a criminal trial pending. According to what has been revealed so far, even if he did instruct his subordinates to drag out National Assembly members, it was not on the orders of former President Yoon, but a unilateral decision by Kwak Jong-geun himself.

Therefore, the act of trying to drag out National Assembly members remains his sole responsibility. It is thought that he may have tried to shift that responsibility to former President Yoon out of fear.

5. Kwak Jong-geun is the superior party (갑), the Democratic Party is the subordinate party (을).

Now, the relationship between Kwak Jong-geun and the Democratic Party has reversed, with Kwak Jong-geun becoming the superior party and the Democratic Party the subordinate party. Up until now, Kwak Jong-geun was the subordinate and the Democratic Party the superior, but now the roles have been swapped.

What this means is, if Kwak Jong-geun changes his stance and speaks the truth, what will happen to the Democratic Party? If Kwak Jong-geun made false statements due to the Democratic Party's persuasion and manipulation, and then suddenly changes his attitude and says it was all due to the Democratic Party's persuasion and manipulation, what will happen?

The Democratic Party will be in turmoil. This means the current Lee Jae-myung administration will be in turmoil. If Kwak Jong-geun changes his attitude and speaks the truth, the world will be turned upside down. If the specific facts of persuasion and the process of manipulation are revealed one by one, it will be difficult for the Lee Jae-myung administration to remain intact.

6. The Lee Jae-myung administration must be in a state of anxiety, unable to sleep soundly at night. Currently, they are keenly focused on the upcoming verdict on February 19th by the Ji Gui-yeon court.

If the treason trial verdict results in acquittal or dismissal of the charges, they will be in a truly difficult situation. If an acquittal is granted, the December 12th martial law was not treason, but rather the opposition party's actions in exploiting it become rebellion. Will the people let the rebel forces go unpunished?

7. After Director Kim Hyun-tae was dismissed, he is exposing the truth as if his life depended on it. The Lee Jae-myung administration and the Democratic Party must be watching this closely. They must be feeling the pressure.

What will they do if Kwak Jong-geun, changing his current stance, attacks the Lee Jae-myung administration and the Democratic Party with the weapon of truth?

They must be afraid of Kwak Jong-geun. Kwak Jong-geun, whom they thought of as a subordinate and treated like a toy, has suddenly become the superior party, thoroughly reducing the Lee Jae-myung administration and the Democratic Party to subordinate positions. They are left with no choice but to watch Kwak Jong-geun's lips.

8. Let us send our support to Director Kim Hyun-tae. Let us offer encouragement and support to him as he bravely fights, so that we can set straight the tilted playing field of this land. He has already become a fighter.

Now, let us turn our attention to Kwak Jong-geun. Let us send our support to Kwak Jong-geun. Let us offer him encouragement and support so that he can speak the truth.

Let us consider that we too bear some responsibility for Kwak Jong-geun not speaking the truth and making false statements until now. While the Democratic Party desperately approached him and persuaded him to lie, we made no effort to stop it.

We bear at least some responsibility for not making efforts to guide and encourage him to speak the truth. If we had made such efforts, perhaps Kwak Jong-geun would have changed.

9. The only way for Kwak Jong-geun to survive is to speak the truth from now on. Revealing the truth is the way for him to save himself, to be able to hold his head high with integrity to his family, friends, and colleagues. It is the way to make South Korea go the right way.

Kwak Jong-geun must not be sleeping soundly. How can he sleep soundly when he has deceived himself, his neighbors, his colleagues, and the public?

Now, let us help him. Let us help him move towards the truth. With such help, he can move towards the bright world of truth and will no longer owe a debt to the world.

10. Let us place our hope in Kwak Jong-geun. He is not someone who actively plunged into the world of falsehood. He was caught in a trap of falsehood by certain forces, including the Democratic Party. He was thoroughly exploited. This is clearly evident in his state of mind revealed in a phone call with an acquaintance.

He is a lonely person. He has no one to lean on. Let us extend a hand to him. Let us enable him to come out into the bright world and speak with dignity for himself and for the world, instead of being trapped in loneliness and fear. Let us make it clear that truth conquers falsehood.

11. Let us earnestly hope that the Ji Gui-yeon court will make a correct ruling on the treason criminal case on February 19th, in accordance with the Constitution, laws, and conscience.

Let us support Director Kim Hyun-tae as he speaks the truth more bravely and fights properly.

Let us help former Commander Kwak Jong-geun to come out of the trap of falsehood and into the bright world of truth.

If all of these elements come together and proceed on their proper course, South Korea will become just, and we will become happy.

Let us all gather our strength. Fighting!
