[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 9th, the Bareunmirae Party criticized Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae's rebuttal regarding the high-ranking prosecutor personnel appointments, in which she said, "The Prosecutor General defied my orders," calling it "a sight unbearable to behold, reflecting only authoritarianism and an old-fashioned mindset."

Kim Jeong-hwa, spokesperson for the Bareunmirae Party, said in a statement that day, "Minister Chu mistakenly perceives the relationship between the minister and the Prosecutor General as a hierarchical one like that between a king and his vassal," adding, "She might as well have ordered poison."

He continued, "After unilaterally handling matters that should have been coordinated with the Prosecutor General, one cannot help but ask what kind of delusional remarks these are," and pointed out, "Minister Chu, who claims 'this is the most fair and balanced personnel appointment,' should speak properly."

He added, "How can the brutal exile of prosecutors who are like the arms and legs of Prosecutor General Yoon be considered the most balanced personnel appointment?" and said, "It is not the most balanced appointment but the most disgraceful one."

Spokesperson Kim stated, "The true face of the Blue House and the Justice Minister has been revealed to the public through the 'Yoon Seok-yeol ousting,'" and criticized, "This shameless regime, which pursues private interests with public authority entrusted by the people, is not only a dictatorial regime but also one that shamelessly tries to turn back the clock to an absolute monarchy."

Spokesperson Kim concluded, "Minister Chu, who is reckless and headstrong, should serve the will of the people before invoking the authority of the minister."
