Democratic Party leader Rep. Kim Min-seok urged South Korea to strengthen its independent security capabilities, citing potential shifts in US-North Korea relations and a possible 'freeze-first' approach to North Korea's nuclear program, while also advocating for constitutional reform and balanced regional development.

Jang Dong-hyuk, leader of the People Power Party, criticized the integration of the three military academies of the Army, Navy, and Air Force and raised concerns about the collapse of national defense, the dissolution of alliances, and anti-Americanism, while Rep. Na Kyung-won linked this to the regime's under-organization and expressed concerns about the future. Representative Jang plans to visit the Air Force Academy today and hold a meeting, and visit the Naval Academy on the 11th to listen to concerns on the ground.

Independent lawmaker Han Dong-hoon disclosed text messages between a broker named Yang and a pharmaceutical company representative regarding suspicions that Justice Minister candidate Kim Seung-won solicited approval for clinical trials of new drugs. The text mentioned 'Democratic Party brothers', 'Rep. Song Young-gil', 'Rep. Choi', and 'Rep. Kim', and claimed to contain lobbying for approval from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. One lawmaker said he would leave it up to the public to decide, calling this a “real public interest.”

Justice Minister nominee Kim Seung-won denied illegally lobbying for a COVID-19 treatment in 2021, acknowledging he should have been more careful in his request, while prosecutors previously dropped the case due to insufficient evidence of illegal solicitation.

People Power Party lawmaker Park Jeong-hoon claimed that Kim Yong, former vice president of the Democratic Research Institute, was sentenced to five years in prison in the first and second trials for receiving 600 million won in illegal political funds from a private business in Daejang-dong, and that this money was used to manage seven outlying organizations, including the basic income movement headquarters in which former ministerial candidate Yong Hye-in participated.

On the 7th, the Special Prosecutor Team of the National Election Commission, Lee Tae-han, was officially launched with a signboard hanging ceremony held at the special prosecutor's office in Seocho-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul. The team plans to investigate 12 suspicions, including shortage of ballot papers, manipulation of voting statistics, foreign business trips, and preferential contracts, for up to 150 days to uncover poor election management and irregularities in the operation of the National Election Commission.
