[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Former Liberty Korea Party leader Hong Joon-pyo criticized Hwang Kyo-ahn, saying on the 7th, "It is truly regrettable that the entire opposition party is sinking into a quagmire due to the opposition leader's own issues."

On the same day, Hong said on Facebook, "President Moon Jae-in was at the very top of the Druking presidential election opinion manipulation scandal and was also at the very top of the fraudulent election that made the Ulsan mayor in the last local election. Despite this being a major incident comparable to the March 15 fraudulent election that led to President Rhee Syngman’s resignation, it is not being properly addressed."

He pointed out, "If such a serious presidential criminal charge is revealed ahead of the general election, the opposition must win overwhelmingly. However, the opposition is floundering and failing to maintain focus."

He added, "Although it is late, even if impeachment through the National Assembly is not possible, it is time to forcibly proceed with a public impeachment process. That is the opposition's last chance to break through the general election."

Hong said, "Who are the next presidential candidates in the conservative and right-wing camp? Even if you count, there are only three or four people," and expressed regret, saying, "It is truly unfortunate that instead of giving each presidential candidate a role to unite and break through the general election, they are being collectively pushed into difficult districts in the metropolitan area and treated as disposable soldiers."

He also said, "Those who have experience in elections should lead the election, but how nonsensical is it for someone who has never run an election to try to lead one?" and added, "From now on, set up new election measures. It is not too late yet."
