High-Yield Explanation
"Korsakoff syndrome is a mental disorder that is characterized by severe and `irreversible' memory impairment' and confabulation behavior in the absence of intellectual decline or attention deficit". Recent memory is impaired with relative preservation of remote memory. Lack of insight is a characteristic feature of korsakoff's syndrome. I think there is printing mistake in the question. Except should not be there in the question. In that condition answer will be option 'c'.
