[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Suwan] Min Kyung-wook, former member of the Future United Party (now People Power Party), called it "good news" and said, "The era of Jin Joong-kwon's reign over the People Power Party has come to an end," as Kim So-yeon, the People Power Party's Daejeon Yuseong district committee chairperson who was at the center of controversy for hanging a banner that read 'The Moon is going to Yeongchang,' withdrew her resignation.

On the 13th, Min shared an article titled 'Jin Joong-kwon criticizes People Power Party for blocking Kim So-yeon's resignation... "If you can't handle even one thing like this, you are doomed to fail"' on his Facebook and said, "It is good news that lawyer Kim So-yeon’s position as district committee chairperson is maintained," adding, "It is even better that the party persuaded her not to resign."

He added, "It is also a happy event that the era of Jin Joong-kwon's reign over the People Power Party has come to an end."

Earlier, on the 27th of last month, Kim, the district committee chairperson, wrote the phrase 'The Moon is going to Yeongchang' on a Chuseok greeting banner, which sparked controversy for insulting the president, and she announced her voluntary resignation on the 9th.

Subsequently, due to the persuasion of Kim Jong-in, the emergency committee chairman of the People Power Party, among others, Kim withdrew her resignation on the 12th.

Meanwhile, former professor Jin posted on his Facebook the day before, saying, "'The Moon is going to Yeongchang' is problematic, but the bigger issue is that this person (Kim, the district committee chairperson) is a believer in the conspiracy theory of election manipulation," and criticized, "People without a sense of reality should not engage in politics."

He further stated toward the People Power Party, "How can you entrust a district committee chairperson to someone who has completely lost touch with reality? This person will continue to cause trouble," and added, "They are already muddling through reform, and if they can't even handle one issue like this, they are simply doomed to fail."

In response, Kim, the district committee chairperson, on the same day, rebutted, "Who is calling whom a conspiracy theorist? Apologize first for the memories of mad cow disease," and said, "I appreciate the interest in me, but if it goes too far, it could be seen as 'cyberstalking,' as feminists say. Please restrain yourselves before the 'feminists' get attacked."
