[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Cha Myung-jin, a former member of the Future United Party who was expelled during the last general election due to the 'Sewol Ferry slander' controversy, announced that he will sue Kim Jong-in, the emergency committee chairman of the United Party.

On the 11th, Cha said on Facebook, "While he was the campaign committee chairman, he made my expulsion, which was beyond his authority, a fait accompli regarding my truthful statements, causing serious damage to my votes in the preliminary election."

Regarding Professor Lee Kyung-jeon of Kyung Hee University, who was appointed as the head of the Yeouido Research Institute but had his appointment canceled for supporting Cha's remarks, he said, "I'm sorry. No, rather, congratulations," adding, "When a white heron goes where crows play, it only gets hurt."

He added, "It's fortunate that he did not tarnish his career as a conscientious intellectual, which he built over a lifetime, by entering that place full of schemers," and said, "When Professor Lee's programmed artificial intelligence (AI) conducts the candidate screening, how many of them will survive? Those who made a fuss about firing Professor Lee must have been afraid of that."

Cha said, "I can't stand it anymore. Really, really breaking up with the United Party," adding, "I have turned a blind eye more than once for the sake of former comrades still remaining there, but from now on, there will be no benefits. Not only the leftists but also fake conservatives are enemies of the people."
