Osan City Council members demand halt to alleged reward-based appointments

Members of the People Power Party in the Osan City Council held a press conference demanding that Mayor Jo Yong-ho halt certain personnel appointments. The council members, including Cho Mi-seon, Park Chang-seon, and Kwon Hyuk-man, alleged that the administration is engaging in ‘reward-based appointments’ to favor individuals who supported the mayor during the election.

The controversy specifically involves the potential appointment of an individual to a leadership position within the Osan Cultural Center. The council members raised concerns regarding the transparency of the selection process and the professional qualifications of the candidates, arguing that appointments should be based on merit and the interests of Osan citizens rather than political ties.
