President Moon Jae-in's top aides are scheduled to field questions at the National Assembly today about a scandal involving the alleged illegal surveillance of private citizens.
Opposition parties, especially the main opposition Liberty Korea Party,... are expected to slam President Moon's Chief of Staff Im Jong-seok and his Civil Affairs Senior Secretary Cho Kuk for their alleged involvement.
They're also accused of compiling a blacklist of executives at public organizations affiliated with the environment ministry earlier this year.
The ruling party denies the allegations, saying it will prove the scandal is nothing more than "fake news".
