The public prosecutor's office, the public prosecutor's office in South Korea, instructed the former first Lady Kim Keon Hee to ask this week because of allegations of influence in the 2022 parliamentary elections, the statutory sources announced on Monday.

The former First Lady was also accused of participating in the PPP's candidates for the local elections 2022 and the parliamentary elections in 2024.

Kim still has to react to the lectures.

“We have not yet discussed our official position,” a lawyer of the former First Lady told Yonhap News Agency.

According to reports, the prosecutors are reportedly considering an arrest warrant to capture Kim if they are repeated without legitimate reasons.

At the beginning of 2025, Kim Keon-Hee stood with the assembled public examination because of her alleged participation in the country's short-lived war law decrees with allegations of interference and text messages on the eve of the December debacle.

The opposition Democratic Party of Korea (DPK) claimed that the impending threat of a public revelation about the alleged interference of the first couple in the nomination process for a local parliament in 2022 had put pressure on the former President Yoon Suk-Yeol in order to start the long-lasting actions.
