與, “breach of trust in the people’s livelihood” in the national power struggle over the counter… Han Byeong-do: “Not to the moon, but to the National Assembly.”

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Park Gyeong-jun and Choi Joo-seong = When the People Power Party announced that it would continue the struggle outside the court to protest against the 'Special Prosecution Act on Manipulated Prosecutions' passed by the National Assembly under the leadership of the Democratic Party of Korea, the ruling party defined it as a 'breach of trust in the people's livelihood' and strongly criticized it.

At the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly on the 13th, Kim Min-seok, leader of the Democratic Party, pointed out that People Power Party leader Jang Dong-hyuk recently said on Facebook, "Lee Jae-myeong's prison escape law should be stopped not just off-site, but even by going to the moon," and pointed out, "Recover the spirit that is on the moon."

Floor leader Han Byeong-do said, “Representative Jang says he will go to the moon, but he doesn’t have to go that far. He just needs to come to the National Assembly right in front of us.” He urged, “Go around the country, hold the microphone, and beat the drum, and focus your energy on reviewing the budget and passing legislation for the people.”

One floor leader said, “Why on earth are we putting our lives on the line and fighting for it, putting the people’s livelihood at the forefront?” and emphasized, “The time of the National Assembly should be used solely to protect the lives of the people.”

He continued, “What must be protected is not the political life of the party leader, but the lives of the people and the future of the Republic of Korea.” He added, “The Democratic Party will not give in to any difficulties or obstacles and will fulfill its responsibility to the end in reviewing next year’s budget plan and enacting legislation for the people’s livelihood.”

This message is interpreted as an intention to launch a counterattack with the frame of 'ignoring the people's livelihood' against the People's Power Party, which criticizes the special prosecution law for manipulation of prosecutions as 'Lee Jae-myung's jailbreak law'.

Park Seong-jun, the party's chief spokesperson, met with reporters after the Supreme Committee and claimed, "The People Power Party's off-site struggle is a complete neglect of the opposition party's responsibility."

Chief Spokesperson Park also mentioned that the People Power Party did not participate in the budget review at the Legislation and Judiciary Committee in opposition to the handling of the special prosecution law and said, “The People Power Party has neglected the future.”

Senior Spokesperson Park pointed out, "Because they are ignoring the people's livelihood legislation by going outside the main meeting hall, the People Power Party is a party that 'breaches the people's livelihood' and is a party that is giving up on the people's livelihood."
