[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 12th, the People Power Party criticized the Blue House's announcement of a special inspection plan on public service discipline, saying, "It is suspicious that this is an attempt to control the ministry to protect their own, including Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae."

Kim Eun-hye, spokesperson for the People Power Party, said in a verbal comment on the same day, "There is a sense of anxiety aimed at silencing calls for Minister Choo's resignation and preemptively blocking potential internal whistleblowing within the administration."

Spokesperson Kim added, "The Blue House's statement that 'strict measures will be taken against irresponsible behavior that goes against the national crisis overcoming stance' seems more like a threat to the public, who are already weakened by the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19)."
