Cho Jin-tae, a senior official from the May 18 Foundation, said his group has decided to extend a "warm welcome" to Woo-won, as he voluntarily returned to Korea to make an apology even though he knew he would be apprehended in Korea for illegal drug use.
"I feel sorry for him as I think this young man has also endured a tough life while living as a grandson of Chun Doo-hwan," Cho said during his appearance on CBS radio.
According to Cho, some bereaved families raised concerns over the credibility of Woo-won as he faced allegations of illegal drug use, but most of them later agreed with the need to listen to him.
"We also plan to request the government to investigate slash funds possessed by Chun Doo-hwan's families as witnessed by Woo-won," Cho added.
He will hold a press conference to make a public apology, something that his grandfather refused to do.
Calling his grandfather a "mass murderer," Woo-won has expressed his willingness to make an apology to the bereaved families and victims of the deadly acts of the military government under the command of his grandfather.
