[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 27th, Assemblyman Kwon Eun-hee, affiliated with Ahn Cheol-soo, joined the People Party. Assemblyman Kwon became the first incumbent lawmaker of the People Party.

On the same day, Assemblyman Kwon held a press conference at the National Assembly and stated, "As a member of the People Party, I will seek rational alternatives rather than engaging in a fight against the two major parties' vested interest frames."

Assemblyman Kwon also said, "Based on the reality and future life of the people, I will present practical solutions and continue this step to judge and check the arrogance and recklessness of the Moon Jae-in administration and the Democratic Party of Korea, so that the people may win."

Assemblyman Kwon acknowledged, "I am well aware of the demand that the opposition must unite to judge the arrogance and recklessness of the Moon Jae-in administration and the Democratic Party of Korea," but added, "As long as the political symbiotic relationship of the two major vested-interest parties is maintained, future change and innovation are hard to expect."

Regarding the movement of some lawmakers and non-incumbents toward the United Future Party, Assemblyman Kwon said, "Rather than trying to resolve this situation through the political decision of Representative Ahn Cheol-soo, I hope they break through this situation with their own decisions."
