The audit of Wansan Academy by the Jeonbuk Provincial Office of Education has concluded. However, the end of the audit does not mean that the core suspicions have been resolved. Key issues that remained unresolved until the last day of the audit, such as the credibility of the interim chairman's board statements and suspicions of false information in the court-submitted confirmation document, must still be addressed even after the audit results have been announced.
<b>Continued 'Changing of Statements' by the Wansan Academy Chairman</b>
The chairman's statement that the audit officials recommended specifying the intra-corporate transfer clause in the articles of association was initially refuted by the official denial of the Education Office, and later, the chairman significantly backtracked on this statement during the 5th interim board meeting on June 16, as confirmed through the meeting minutes.
The chairman had stated during the 3rd interim board meeting on April 1 that the audit officials had "suggested presenting the articles of association as an opinion," and in conversations with school staff, he even used the expression, "the audit officials recommended putting it in the articles of association." However, after the Education Office spokesperson officially clarified that there was no such recommendation, the chairman's statement in the 5th interim board meeting minutes was changed to:
"When we went to deliver a specific audit request in March and had a brief meeting with the audit officials, they said that since private schools do not usually have issues with the intra-corporate transfer clause, 'why not just specify it in the articles of association,' as we kept hearing this advice from various sources due to the uniqueness of our school, we said, 'can we just specify it in the articles of association,' and the audit officials responded, 'I guess that would be fine,' and we had a general discussion at a common-sense level..."

<b>The narrative completely changed to a scenario where the audit officials agreed after the chairman's side spoke first, which was a complete reversal.</b>
However, the revised version contains expressions that undermine the chairman himself. He directly defined the meeting as a "general discussion at a common-sense level." It is an acknowledgment that the conversation was inappropriate to be used as official evidence. Nevertheless, the chairman introduced and recorded that statement as the basis for amending the articles of association during the April board meeting. Furthermore, even the fact that the audit officials agreed is solely based on the chairman's unilateral account. There is no objective record such as meeting notes, attendees, or official letters to support this.
<b>Internal source familiar with the audit officials: "It is unlikely that such a statement was made"</b>
An employee from another department of the Jeonbuk Provincial Office of Education who is familiar with the audit officials firmly stated to the newspaper, "Considering that person's character and principles, I do not believe there is a possibility that such a statement advising the chairman of the audited entity on the direction of amending the articles of association was made." The Education Office spokesperson stated that the audit officials, in fact, had a conversation that was more about "compliance with the Private School Act and the articles of association."
In conclusion, the flow of events in this matter can be summarized as follows:
April 3rd board meeting: "The audit officials first presented an opinion."
Conversation with school staff: "The audit officials recommended putting it in the articles of association."
Official clarification by the Education Office: "There was no such recommendation; it was more about compliance with the Private School Act and the articles of association."
June 5th board meeting minutes: "We said it, and the audit officials said it would be fine."
Education Office official: "There is no possibility that the audit officials made such a statement."
Despite repeatedly retracting his statements, the chairman has never provided verifiable evidence to support his claims.
<b>While the audit has ended, the suspicions have not</b>
The audit by the Jeonbuk Provincial Office of Education has concluded. However, if the audit results did not clearly address these key issues, the integrity of the audit itself remains in question.
Whether the statements made by the audit officials in the official board meeting minutes are accurate, if the confirmation document submitted to the court contains false information, and if the administrative director who raised objections was subjected to collective pressure, these three issues must be included in the audit report.
If the audit results have sidestepped these issues, the Jeonbuk Provincial Office of Education must publicly explain how these issues were handled along with the announcement of the results. The decisions of the Appeals Review Committee, evaluations of the school principal, official clarifications by the Education Office, and testimonies from internal sources all point in a direction contrary to the chairman's claims.
Now that the audit has concluded, the focus should be on the transparent disclosure of the Jeonbuk Provincial Office of Education's audit results and the responsible follow-up actions. The pursuit of truth does not end with the conclusion of the audit.
📝 Summary:
The audit of Wansan Academy by the Jeonbuk Provincial Office of Education has ended, but key suspicions remain unresolved. The chairman's statements regarding the audit have changed multiple times, raising doubts about the integrity of the process and the credibility of the information provided.
