Former first lady Kim Keon Hee has postponed her appearance before a special counsel team to later next week, citing health reasons, legal sources said Thursday.
Kim had been scheduled to undergo questioning by special counsel Kwon Chang-young's team on Sunday morning over alleged irregularities in the relocation of the presidential residence in 2022.
The session has been rescheduled to 10 a.m. Tuesday, according to the sources.
The wife of former President Yoon Suk Yeol is suspected of using her influence to select interior design company 21 Gram to renovate the new presidential residence in Seoul's Yongsan Ward following its relocation from Cheong Wa Dae in 2022.
