[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 5th, Kim Seong-sik, a member of the Bareunmirae Party, announced that he would leave the Bareunmirae Party. This is the third resignation declaration following Lee Chan-yeol and Kim Gwan-young.

On the same day, Kim said on his Facebook, "The Bareunmirae Party has reached the end of its lifespan. The main actors of the wrong merger have become the source of discord. Eventually, the party was torn apart here and there, and instead of creating an extraordinary turning point, the party leader sealed the fate with a disastrous appointment," adding, "Attempts to unite and restore the party were powerless, and I also failed to fulfill my role properly."

Kim expressed, "I am truly ashamed and sorry to the people and party members," and said, "Especially to the people who created the People's Party election revolution in the 20th general election four years ago and the residents of Gwanak-gu who elected me, I cannot hold my head high."

Kim stated, "Even if the path is difficult, I will contribute even a small strength as an independent to change the old political landscape and achieve a political era transition beyond the industrialization and democratization era centered on future generations," and added, "I will never look sideways chasing political gains or losses."
