장미란씨 12일 밤 외출 몇 시간 뒤 숨진 듯…“범죄 가능성 낮게 봐”

On December 3 during the state of emergency, former special operations battalion commander Major General Kim Hyun-tae was accused of penetrating the National Assembly and was sentenced to 12 years of imprisonment at the first trial. During this time, right-wing YouTuber Han Gilc was active alongside Major General Kim. Han Gilc claimed that Major General Kim had been promoted to general upon his arrest, stating "General Kim has been promoted to general."

He encouraged economic assistance for Major General Kim's family and even offered to sponsor the election campaign. On the 27th, Han Gilc hosted a "Major General Kim's Arrest Special Broadcast" on his YouTube channel, with former Jeju-do governor Kim Yong-hwan joining him and declaring, "I have promoted Major General Kim to general today."

Han Gilc also said, "From this moment, I will call him General Kim." Major General Kim was reportedly being held at Seoul Central District Prison. Lawyer Kim Ji-myeon and Lee Ha-sang represented Major General Kim at the courtroom. Han Gilc appeared on the same YouTube broadcast and said he would meet with Major General Kim the following day to hear his message to the public.

They introduced Major General Kim's Seoul Central District Prison registration number and urged supporters to write letters to him. After Kim Hyun-tae's dismissal in January, Han Gilc continued to support him by promoting the 12·3 Emergency and contesting the election results of the Incheon constituency for the provisional assembly, where Kim Hyun-tae ran. Han Gilc emphasized that the "destiny of our birth is different, but we will stick together."
