According to the disclosure, the office spent a total of 464.2 million won ($332,700) in special activity funds from July 16 to the end of August. This is the first time the presidential office has released spending records for both special activity funds and specific task-related expenses. Special activity funds, in particular, have long drawn public suspicion under previous administrations due to the lack of disclosure. The package included 4.13 billion won in special activity funds for the presidential office. According to local reports, the 2026 national budget proposal — currently under deliberation in the Assembly — seeks to restore the presidential office’s special activity fund to its pre-cut level.
