Korean Party: "Lee In-young, Who Advocated Land Public Concept, Is Saying He Will Move Toward Socialism"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hye-min] The Liberty Korea Party criticized Lee In-young, the floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, who said he would pursue a constitutional amendment on the concept of public land ownership after the general election, calling it "a move toward socialism."

Hwang Gyu-hwan, deputy spokesperson of the Liberty Korea Party, said in a statement on the 5th, "Floor Leader Lee advocated for the introduction of the concept of public land ownership through a constitutional amendment." Earlier, in an interview with Asia Economy, Lee had stated, "There is a debate about whether the concept of public land ownership is in the spirit of the constitution, but I believe it is. I hope it will be clarified through constitutional amendment discussions."

In response, Deputy Spokesperson Hwang criticized, "Not only have they disrupted the real estate market with all kinds of regulations and immature measures, crushing the dreams of ordinary people to own a home, but now they want to enshrine the concept of public land ownership in the constitution and move toward socialism."

He pointed out, "In 2018, Representative Lee Hae-chan also advocated for the concept of public land ownership, which drew public outrage. At this point, Chief Secretary Kang Ki-jung's remarks on the 'housing sales permit system' were probably not just offhand comments."

Regarding Floor Leader Lee's statement that "there is an unexplainable hegemony in religion, markets, and the media," Deputy Spokesperson Hwang sharply criticized, "This is yet another witch hunt. This regime's tiresome division, viewing all opposing forces as targets for reform, has begun." He also emphasized the strong warning to the prosecution, saying, "They condemned the rightful investigation into regime corruption as a political attempt and threatened the prosecution with the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials and the adjustment of investigative authority between the prosecution and police."

Deputy Spokesperson Hwang raised his voice, saying, "Even during the Wuhan pneumonia crisis, the Blue House only talked about the Corruption Investigation Office, and despite the economic collapse, the ruling party was obsessed only with rushing the election law and the Corruption Investigation Office law. Their sole purpose was to win the general election, amend the constitution, and lay the foundation for long-term rule." He stressed, "But remember this well. Ultimately, that plan will fail," and added, "The futile dream of the Moon Jae-in administration and the ambitious plan of the Democratic Party will be stopped by the people."
