[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Lee Dong-seop, Acting Floor Leader of the Bareunmirae Party, stated on the 11th regarding the allegations of the Blue House's interference in the Ulsan mayoral election, "If the contents of the prosecution's indictment are true, it is more serious than former President Park Geun-hye," and urged, "We demand an explanation from the Blue House."

At the floor strategy meeting held at the National Assembly that day, Lee said, "According to the prosecution's indictment, there are signs of illegal involvement by the Blue House to ensure Song Cheol-ho's election as Ulsan mayor, and the president is mentioned several times."

Lee added, "Due to the Ministry of Justice's crackdown on the prosecution, the investigation was hurriedly concluded, so it was not deeply examined, but it raises serious questions about how systematically the Blue House manipulated and organized the interference, and who the higher-ups really are."

He emphasized, "The interference in the Ulsan mayoral election is a crime that shakes the foundation of democracy and a serious violation of the rule of law," and said, "The Blue House, which has remained consistently silent, must immediately provide a detailed explanation."
