View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] On the 9th, Lee In-young, floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, urged Hwang Kyo-ahn, leader of the United Future Party, to apologize, saying, "The pathetic series of reckless remarks by the United Future Party continues."
At the current affairs inspection meeting held at the National Assembly that morning, Floor Leader Lee criticized, "The United Future Party must immediately expel all candidates who make reckless remarks," adding, "In a national crisis situation where the entire nation is voluntarily enduring sacrifices, opposition party candidates parading reckless remarks is a shameless act of disregarding the people."
He continued, "The problem is not an accidental slip of the tongue but a situation that was already sufficiently predictable, and the responsibility for this election turning into a brutal 'reckless remarks election' lies with Leader Hwang. The core issue is Leader Hwang's indiscriminate ambition for nominations," he pointed out.
He explained, "Candidate Cha Myung-jin has already caused several reckless remarks scandals and is a habitual reckless politician who has been suspended from party membership. Candidate Min Kyung-wook, the protagonist of the shameful curse scandal, was nominated several times by Leader Hwang through flip-flop nominations," adding, "Candidate Kim Jin-tae, who made reckless remarks about the May 18 incident, also received a nomination without any problem."

Floor Leader Lee emphasized, "The nomination process of the United Future Party, which should have properly removed problematic figures, has instead turned into an unprecedented ceremony that grants impunity to such reckless remarks," and stressed, "This cannot be resolved by scapegoating one or two people. The first step to solving the problem is for Leader Hwang to apologize to the people for the wrongful nominations."
