[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 2nd, the United Future Party stated, “Citizens enraged by the government’s real estate policies that have failed 22 times in a row and the so-called In-guk-gong incident that shook the value of fairness poured into the streets,” and criticized, “The reason citizens are angry is due to the government’s intentional division and hasty policies pushed forward without proper consideration.”

Bae Jun-young, spokesperson for the United Future Party, said in a commentary on the day, “Yesterday, the desperate cries of the people saying ‘Is this a country?’ filled downtown Seoul,” and asked, “Can you not hear the earnest cries of the people?”

He pointed out, “The government and ruling party have been dividing homeowners and non-homeowners, regular and irregular workers, labeling homeowners, landlords, and regular workers as evils and driving them out,” adding, “Now even tenants are being differentiated by calling some ‘originals,’ and irregular workers are subjected to unfair discriminatory treatment depending on a single word from the president, creating such a country.”

He continued, “The Blue House and government remain silent on the In-guk-gong incident,” and added, “Who opposes converting irregular workers to regular workers and improving their treatment? The problem lies in the fairness of the process.”

Spokesperson Bae said, “Instead of reflecting on the failed real estate policies, the government pushed the three lease laws without concrete linked alternatives, causing nationwide housing market chaos over the weekend,” and stated, “Now is the time to listen to the voices of the people. The so-called prosecutorial reform aimed at clinging to power and the push for the Corruption Investigation Office law to cover up their own faults are of no importance to the people right now.”
