[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Jang Je-won, a member of the Future United Party, has been continuously criticizing the actions of the 'Kim Jong-in Emergency Response Committee,' while Kim Jae-seop, an emergency response committee member of the United Party, requested on the 28th, "Please watch over the emergency committee with a broad mind and support it."

On the same day, Kim posted on his Facebook, "I remember Representative Jang, who personally showed selfless dedication for our party during the 19th general election. It was a difficult and significant decision and a sacrifice for the party," he said.

He addressed Representative Jang, saying, "Change is never easy. I imagine you must feel very frustrated. I am well aware of the shortcomings," adding, "I take the remarks you made to the chairman as valuable criticism telling all emergency committee members to do well." He concluded, "We must do better. I will visit you soon."

Earlier, on the 27th, Representative Jang also said to Chairman Kim, "I hope you do not try to control even the party's presidential candidate." This was in response to Chairman Kim recently mentioning Baek Jong-won, CEO of The Born Korea, as a potential next presidential candidate during a meeting with the party's first-term lawmakers.

Through his Facebook, Representative Jang criticized, "Through this incident, I have come to understand more clearly what kind of perspective the emergency committee chairman has toward the party," adding, "It is truly bitter to see a party that should respect and nurture people being ridiculed due to the chairman's empty words."

He continued, "There are mocking jokes circulating in the public, such as 'If it's the United Party candidate, it should be Lim Young-woong rather than Baek Jong-won,'" and pointed out, "If the position of emergency committee chairman of the main opposition United Party had any weight, such absurd speculation would not have run rampant."

Since the launch of the emergency committee, Representative Jang has repeatedly criticized Chairman Kim. Through his Facebook, he has said things like, "Since Chairman Kim came in, the party's fighting power has significantly weakened. It has lost its wildness," and "Chairman Kim's week was a splendid feast with nothing to eat, a week that hurt the support base and gave prey to the opposing camp."
