[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The New Conservative Party criticized the Democratic Party of Korea for filing a complaint against Professor Im Miri of Korea University, who wrote a column criticizing the ruling party, and demanded that the complaint be withdrawn and that Representative Lee Hae-chan step down.

On the 14th, Kwon Seong-ju, spokesperson for the New Conservative Party, stated in a commentary, "Representative Lee Hae-chan's filing of a complaint against Professor Im Miri is a declaration of war against the freedom and democracy of the Republic of Korea, trampling on freedom of expression, and a public intimidation to suppress intellectuals and the media critical of the regime."

Spokesperson Kwon pointed out, "The Democratic Party is the least democratic," adding, "The complaint by Representative Lee Hae-chan, which could only have happened during the military dictatorship era, is proof that Professor Im Miri's criticism is accurate and painful, and an admission that the Democratic Party is not capable of accepting such criticism."

He continued, "As a result of this complaint, the entire nation has read and sympathized with Professor Im Miri's column, proving once again that Representative Lee Hae-chan is the Democratic Party's X-Man," and added, "Arrogant and petty to the extreme, Representative Lee Hae-chan should immediately withdraw the complaint and resign from his position as the X-Man party leader."
