Chapter 9 - Lawyer Bang and reporter Kang

Do you know who is lawyer Bang? When the first chat was published and his name appeared for the first time as representative of the "reporter of public interest", SR called him "unknown lawyer". And before BS scandal he was really absolutely unknown to the public and rose to fame overnight, thanks to that report.

Bang Jeong Hyun was born in 1979 and graduated from the Faculty of Economics at Seoul National University. He began his career as a lawyer after passing the Bar exam in 2014. Currently, he is an attorney in a law firm, Jung & Partners.
He is also a director of the Korean Youth Sports Association. 

Bang has also obtained qualifications as a patent attorney and administrator, multicultural families' counselor, sports manager, celebrity manager, and also has a license as a body building instructor. 

Few more facts about the Youth Sports Association. As I earlier mentioned, this organization was created by the former K-Sports Foundation manager, Noh Seungil - one of the key whistleblowers in Choi Soon Sil Gate. On Oct. 19. 2017, the day of the establishment of the Association, Mr. Noh introduced Bang and the other directors as "precious people who have been with me for a long time without changing their minds". The office of the Association is located in Uijeongbu City Council building. 

At the opening day, attended other close friends of Mr. Noh - lawmaker Ahn Min Seok (whom I mentioned in previous chapter) and the mayor of Uijeongbu, Ahn Byung Yong, both members of the Democratic Party. It was said that "Politicians belonging to the Democratic Party of Korea did not spare support for Noh's initiative".

The initial funds of the association, about 180 000 dollars, was raised through a bank account on the name of the priest Park Changil. He is another of the CSS Gate whistleblowers, who denounced Jung Yura's (CSS's daughter) location and helped in searching the alleged secret properties of CSS.
