Hu, the Constitutional Court's National Inspection also 'slammed'... The power of the nation confronts the President of the Constitutional Court for targeting Jeong.

On the 13th, the ruling and opposition parties went on the offensive, targeting Chief Justice Cho Hee-dae and Constitutional Court Chief Justice Kim Sang-hwan, respectively, during the audit of the Constitutional Court by the National Assembly Legislation and Judiciary Committee.

The Democratic Party of Korea attacked Chief Justice Cho, claiming that he denied the Constitution by rejecting the Blue House's request to re-nomine the Supreme Court, while the People Power Party questioned Constitutional Court Chief Kim Sang-hwan, who was appointed by President Lee Jae-myung last year, for his use of business expenses and accompanying his spouse on business trips.

Democratic Party lawmaker Park Gyun-taek said, “Chief Justice Cho is claiming that the President has violated his right to make a recommendation,” and added, “The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court’s right to make a recommendation is stipulated in the Constitution, but I believe that the final decision, which is a higher concept, lies with the President’s right to appoint.”

He then pointed out, “Isn’t there a problem with (Chief Justice Cho’s) attitude of denying the Constitution?”

Rep. Kim Yong-min said, "Chief Justice Cho intervened in the presidential election by unanimous decision (returning President Lee Jae-myung's trial for violating the Public Official Election Act), and illegal incentive payments were confirmed," and urged, "If it leads to impeachment, there must be a thorough trial."

Representative Kim Han-gyu said that the People Power Party's request to the Constitutional Court to adjudicate the authority dispute regarding the Blue House's request to re-nominate a Supreme Court nominee "should be dismissed," and argued, "It is clearly grounds for dismissal that a specific political party or National Assembly member, not the Speaker of the National Assembly, requests review on behalf of the National Assembly."

On the other hand, Rep. Sang-Hyun Yoon of the People's Power Party criticized Director Kim, saying, "The President of the Constitutional Court accompanied his wife to the World Constitutional Court Conference in Madrid, Spain, in October last year," and "In the report on overseas business trip plans, you said (your spouse) was invited by the Spanish Constitutional Court, but that's a lie. You were not invited."

Rep. Kwak Gyu-taek of the People's Power Party said to the Constitutional Court, "The business promotion expenses for the Constitutional Court in 2025 are 945 million won, and it appears that about 50 million won was spent in cash," and asked, "Please submit all related documents, including receipts for the use of business expenses from 2022 to this year."

Meanwhile, a war of words broke out between the ruling and opposition parties when People Power Party lawmaker Joo Jin-woo made a new remark during his own question period instead of asking questions from the Constitutional Court.

Representative Joo said, "I think the Democratic Party collectively pushed the seizure button when I pointed out the problems with Emperor Lee Jae-myung's golf," and added, "They say I am a 'cyber wrecker' (a YouTuber who makes money by provocatively distorting other people's incidents and accidents), but the real master of harsh words and cyber wrecker is President Lee Jae-myung."

He continued, "Who is the person who used unspeakable profanity at his sister-in-law and became addicted to social media during work hours? He should reflect on playing golf like an emperor. Even during a national emergency, he only went out to play golf and was caught."

In response, Democratic Party members loudly protested, and People Power Party members also joined in, creating chaos.

Chairman Seo Young-kyo, a member of the Democratic Party, said, "Both sides (the ruling and opposition parties) should stop," and added, "I think it would be better to move on without making personal attacks on each other. I hope the government audit will be conducted with a focus on questions."
