"The level of self-harm threats by gangsters is not even close to this"

Minsaengdang: "Won Yoo-cheol, Is the Abolition of the Mileage System a Reasonable Condition?... Are the People Being Ignored?" View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 11th, the Minsheng Party criticized, "Won Yoo-cheol, leader of the Future Korea Party, has made the abolition of the mixed-member proportional representation system a primary condition for the merger," adding, "He is saying that the Democratic Party of Korea must agree to this issue before merging with the United Future Party, but even gangsters do not threaten self-harm to this extent."


Minsheng Party spokesperson Lee Yeon-gi said in a statement on the same day, "This is a disgraceful drama that completely disregards the people who agreed to the mixed-member proportional representation system."


The spokesperson added, "It is clear that (the Korea Party) is doing this with a cunning calculation that if they form a negotiation group independently, they could become a thorn in the side of the Democratic Party," and stated, "The Democratic Party, which has itself participated in creating satellite parties and thereby undermined the purpose of introducing the mixed-member proportional representation system and the political legitimacy, should deal with it on its own."



He further said, "But how long must the people continue to watch this miserable politics of satellite parties that secured seats through unconstitutional means?" and urged, "Democratic Party leader Lee Hae-chan should no longer test the patience of the people and should clearly disclose what the promised extraordinary measures are."
