People Power Party floor leader Jeong Jeong-sik raised suspicions regarding Yong Hye-in, the candidate for Minister of Gender Equality and Family, claiming that she was appointed to take care of the Labor Party's underground organization.
If things continue like this, there will be an ‘under-organization hearing’… Yong Hye-in must resign from her position as a member of the National Assembly.
(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lee Jeong-hyeon = On the 6th, People Power Party floor leader Jeong Jeong-sik said in relation to Minister of Gender Equality and Family Minister Yong Hye-in, "Was this appointment aimed at taking care of the Labor Party's under-organization?" and urged Candidate Yong's resignation, saying, "If this continues, it will not be a 'representative Yong Hye-in hearing' but an 'under-organization hearing.'"
Regarding the 'under organization suspicion', floor leader Jeong said on Facebook on this day, "The series of organizations leading to the Socialist Party, Labor Party, Alba Alliance, Youth Left, and Basic Income Party were operated by a small secret organization called the 'under organization,' and behind the ideological and economic background of the organization is a person from the activist group named Kim Gil-o, CEO of Korea Board Games."
He then claimed, “The secret organization was an organization close to a closed pseudo-religious group that had committed internal sexual violence under the absolute influence of CEO Kim with policies such as chastity before marriage and prohibition of dating, and it was revealed that Rep. Yong was silent and aided.”
Floor leader Jeong pointed out, “It is being revealed that the Basic Income Party has been operating entirely through internal transactions as a ‘family income party,’” and added, “It is fully understandable if the Basic Income Party is ultimately viewed as a small secret organization with Representative Kim at the top.”
He then emphasized, "Was it Rep. Yong or Representative Kim who was nominated as a candidate for the State Council of the Republic of Korea government? Rep. Yong is nothing more than a plausible political product presented externally by an underground organization, and suspicions are growing that there is an underground organization centered around Representative Kim behind the scenes."
Floor leader Jeong also said, "President Lee Jae-myung said, 'I need to take care of the left.' Who was President Lee really trying to take care of through this appointment?" He asked, "Was it aimed at taking care of the Labor Party's under-organization, with Mr. Kim at the top?"
At the same time, he criticized, "There are too many aspects of Rep. Yong and Mr. Kim that are shrouded in mystery. Deputy Director Kim Hyun-ji, who is believed to have masterminded this appointment, is also completely shrouded in mystery," adding, "It is literally a triangle mystery personnel of Yong Hye-in, Kim Gil-oh and Kim Hyun-ji."
Floor leader Jeong said, “Rep. Yong should resign not only from his position as a ministerial candidate, but also from his position as a member of the National Assembly,” and added, “The people did not vote for the Democratic Alliance to provide government subsidies to underground organizations such as cults.”
