Cho Jun-hyuk (born July 14, 1960) is a South Korean politician and an advocate of the South Korean New Right political movement. He is currently the head of the conservative teachers' union, Union of Education Movement for Liberal Democracy (자유주의교육운동연합).^[1]

Controversy

Korean Teachers & Education Workers' Union Dispute

Cho Jun-hyuk published a list of teachers affiliated with the liberal Korean Teachers & Education Workers' Union on Donga Ilbo, a conservative Chojoongdong newspaper on April 20, 2010.^[2][3]

This later backfired. The KTU filed a court proposal to confiscate his assets in 2010.^[4] This problem has led to the Incheon District Court's decision to confiscate his political fundings and other government taxes.^[5]
