[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hong Jaehee] A citizens' group in Gimje-si, Jeonbuk, has decided to recall Chairman On Juhyun to hold him accountable for tarnishing the honor of the citizens.


On the 3rd, the Citizens' Group for the Normalization of Gimje City Council (hereafter Citizens' Group) announced that the infidelity issue among fellow council members of Gimje City Council has become a nationwide issue, shocking citizens and increasing the number of citizens and organizations willing to participate in a public interest lawsuit.


The Citizens' Group plans to simultaneously pursue a public interest lawsuit against Gimje City Council (claiming damages, injunction to suspend the chairman's duties, injunction to prohibit payment of council members' salaries) and a residents' recall of Chairman On Juhyun, who bears significant responsibility for the current council crisis.


To this end, the Citizens' Group will hold a founding general meeting to form an executive body such as individual subcommittees and will begin full-scale activities related to the public interest lawsuit and residents' recall.


A representative of the Citizens' Group stated, "The number of citizens and organizations wishing to participate in the public interest lawsuit is steadily increasing, and we have agreed to further expand the organization," adding, "The newly launched Citizens' Group has decided to restore the honor and pride of the torn-apart citizens of Gimje by pursuing the public interest lawsuit and removing Chairman On Juhyun."


Meanwhile, the Public Interest Lawsuit Promotion Committee for Compensation of Citizens Damaged by the Gimje City Council Infidelity Incident and Chairman Election has been expanded into the Citizens' Group for the Normalization of Gimje City Council.



The Citizens' Group includes the Gimje Farmers' Association, the Gimje Branch of the Shinjang Disabled Persons Association, Gimje People, and religious groups, among other civic organizations in the Gimje area.
