Controversy over adjustable-rate transactions! Intermediaries, brokers, explanations, and PD Notebook

In the MBC PD Notebook episode 'Bad Teachers', some daily instructors, private education companies, and current and former teachers

Allegations of a question-trading scheme have sent ripples through the education community.

 

The instructor denied the allegations and stated that the production was outsourced through an intermediary.

 

 

1. What has been raised about the controversy surrounding the adjustable-item transaction system?

 

PD Notebook is a program that some current teachers participated in the process of producing a mock college entrance exam.

The report focused on the circumstances in which test questions were provided to private education companies and paid for.

 

According to reports, there was testimony that each problem was traded for anywhere from several hundred thousand won to up to 2 million won.

The investigation also mentioned that there were transactions worth hundreds of millions of won over a long period of time.

 

The possibility of the existence of intermediaries acting as brokers for large entrance exam companies has also been raised.

The suspicion of a 'private education cartel' has expanded.

 

 

2. Whether or not to indict the defendant and the current status of the investigation

 

Following the report, controversy grew as it was reported that instructor Cho Jeong-sik had been indicted on charges of violating the Anti-Bribery Act.

However, the specific legal responsibility is a matter to be determined through trial.

 

The prosecution is investigating the transaction structure, the role of the intermediary, and whether the instructor was aware of the transaction.

It is known that this is being viewed as a key issue.

 

 

3. Adjustable explanation: "This was done by an intermediary."

 

The instructor, Jo Jeong-sik, stated his position through his social media, saying, “There is no problem morally or legally.”

 

In particular, the question creation was done through an outsourcing company.

He emphasized that he had never made any direct financial transactions with the teacher.

 

This explanation is currently a central issue in public opinion.

Whether a production structure using intermediaries can avoid legal liability is expected to be a key issue in future trials.

 

 

3. Attitude Controversy: "Put the camera away" response

 

Instructor Jo Jeong-sik, who met with the PD Notebook production team, denied the allegations.

The fact that he showed a strong attitude was also noted on the broadcast.

 

On the broadcast screen, the reporters were asked to put their cameras away.

There is a scene where he shows signs of discomfort while making remarks to that effect.

 

Some viewers responded by saying, “Isn’t this more about defense than explanation?”

 

 

4. Problems with the broker structure and the private education market

 

PD Notebook raised the possibility that a brokerage structure existed between teachers and private education companies to mediate questions.

 

If a current teacher were to sell a problem while working at the school, this would seriously damage trust in public education.

Since test questions are the core of the fairness of the college entrance exam, if a certain group can monopolize them or create similar questions,

There are concerns that structural injustice may arise.
