[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 13th, the Alternative New Party stated that the National Election Commission's approval of the registration of the Liberty Korea Party's satellite party, 'Future Korea Party,' was wrong, saying, "The Election Commission should have boldly struck down the constitutionally problematic proportional satellite party in substance, rather than sticking to formal logic."


Kim Jeong-hyun, spokesperson for the Alternative New Party, said in a statement that "The official registration of the Liberty Korea Party's satellite party by the Election Commission will ultimately cause a serious fracture in representative democracy."


Spokesperson Kim pointed out, "If the trickiest trick of proportional satellite parties openly runs rampant, the establishment of satellite parties will inevitably proliferate like mushrooms after rain," calling it "a major crisis in Korean party politics that has upheld constitutional history."



Spokesperson Kim added, "Since the Election Commission has allowed the registration, now the people have no choice but to judge," and said, "We sincerely hope for the wise choice of the people."
