Kim Ou-joon (Korean: 김어준; born December 6, 1968) is a South Korean journalist. He is well known for the host of a political podcast. He was the original creator of Naneun Ggomsuda and currently runs Ddanzi Ilbo's DAS Boeida and Traffic Broadcasting System's News Factory.[1][2]
After the December 2024 South Korean martial law political crisis, National Intelligence Service (NIS) Deputy Director Hong Jang-won testified to the National Assembly that president Yoon Suk Yeol ordered him to arrest Kim and other political opponents.[3] After the declaration, Kim immediately fled to a remote location for 36 hours, fearing for his life.[4] Kim later testified to the Assembly that he received a report claiming the Yoon administration planned to assassinate People Power Party (PPP) leader Han Dong-hoon and lay the blame on North Korea, though he could not fully confirm its veracity.[5]
In response, PPP said they will pursue legal action for defamation and to identify the reporter.[6]
