[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] On the 26th, Jeong Byeong-guk, a member of the Future United Party, said, "What the Nomination Management Committee showed was the incompetence and irresponsibility of the powerless, and what the party's Supreme Council showed was the selfishness and ambition of those who seized power," adding, "I feel deceived."


In a post on his Facebook on the same day, Jeong said, "I couldn't sleep last night after witnessing the internal nomination turmoil within the party. I even questioned whether the sacrifice I made, giving up even myself to save the Republic of Korea from the tyranny of the Moon Jae-in administration, was truly worth it."


He continued, "The authority of the Nomination Management Committee comes from fairness and the will to uphold it. The authority of the Supreme Council comes from respecting the fairness of the Nomination Management Committee and the steadfastness to lead election victory based on that."


He stated, "The youth, broken by the incompetence of the Nomination Management Committee and the power lust of the Supreme Council, will come to me today, crying and crying again," adding, "Not only because they feel pitiful about their fate being toyed with by the party, but also lamenting the Future United Party, which has collapsed with the fall of the Future and United factions, lamenting Korean politics where reform and innovation have disappeared, and mourning the Republic of Korea, where even the last hope has collapsed before the tyranny of Moon Jae-in, crying and crying again."



Jeong said, "Today, I will cry with them," but also added, "I will not extinguish the last flame of reform. Because we still have to stop the tyranny of Moon Jae-in."
