[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kang Joo-hee] Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the Future United Party, argued that Min Kyung-wook, who raised suspicions that Chinese Communist Party hackers interfered in the April 15 general election, should be expelled from the party.

On the 22nd, Ha posted on his Facebook, saying, "Because of Min Kyung-wook, the United Party is being ridiculed as a party of conspiracy theories," and added, "If the United Party does not expel Min Kyung-wook, it loses the right to demand the expulsion of Yoon Mi-hyang."

Ha criticized, "(Min’s claim is) that a Chinese hacker manipulated the computer system and that he himself deciphered the planted code," and said, "The problem is that only Min himself can decode this code. No one knows the source of the original code that has been transformed several times. The chaotic Min Kyung-wook’s ship is now not only going off course but has reached a stage where he is seeing illusions."

He continued, "If Min truly believes there are suspicions of election fraud, he should wait for the court’s recount results," but pointed out, "However, the current situation has far exceeded what the United Party can accept."

He further stated, "For the online and offline election fraud claimed by Min to be possible, it would require the extremely sophisticated collusion and organized movement of tens of thousands of people, including election commission staff, United Party-appointed vote observers, post office employees, ruling party lawmakers and officials, as well as government agencies of both Korea and China," and emphasized, "This is impossible in the Republic of Korea."

Ha strongly criticized, "Min’s absurd arguments claiming election fraud are dividing the party and hindering innovation," and added, "They have become a source of ridicule for the public and an international embarrassment. They are dragging our party and conservatism into a quagmire that will completely ruin them."
