[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Former People Power Party lawmaker Kim Moo-sung sharply targeted President Moon Jae-in on the 15th, saying, "Among the current contenders within the party, who could be worse than Moon Jae-in, who is ruining our country?"

On the same day, after a lecture by Jeju Governor Won Hee-ryong at the 'Forum for a Better World' (Mapo Forum), Kim told reporters, "Many say there are no capable people in our party, but I don't think so at all," adding, "I believe a star will emerge once the real competition begins."

Kim said, "What is important for presidential candidates is a strong will to become president and save the country from its dire straits," and added, "Due to various circumstances, our party's candidates have not shown this, but I hope today marks a good opportunity for them to actively express their determination."

He emphasized, "This election is about how to set the rules of the game and firmly establish an anti-Moon coalition so that all like-minded candidates participate and select the best player."

Regarding former Liberty Korea Party leader Hong Joon-pyo, Kim said, "Hong should definitely be invited (to the lecture)," adding, "It has to happen someday, but since the issue of his party membership has not been resolved, it was decided to postpone it to the next opportunity."
