According to the legal community on the 11th, Kim is scheduled to enter the country through Incheon International Airport in the afternoon, and the Special Counsel team is expected to arrest and investigate him at the airport. The Special Counsel had sought an arrest warrant for Kim on the 15th of last month and initiated an Interpol red notice and passport invalidation.

Kim is under suspicion of '4.6 billion won in unfair revenue' related to the sale of IMS Mobility's equity, but he denies any financial connection with Kim Keon-hee and has stated that he will clarify this himself. The 'housekeeper gate' refers to the suspicion that IMS Mobility, in which Kim participated, received 18.4 billion won in investment in 2023 from Kakao, HS HYOSUNG, and Shinhan Bank.
