[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Kim Jong-in, Emergency Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, stated on the 21st regarding the Lime and Optimus cases, "I think almost no one believes that an objective investigation can be conducted just because Minister of Justice Choo Mi-ae has exercised her authority to direct the investigation and delegated the case," adding, "There is no other way but a special prosecutor to make the public accept it."

At the joint meeting of the Emergency Committee Chairman and senior lawmakers held at the National Assembly that day, Chairman Kim said, "I do not understand how President Moon Jae-in is standing by the conflict between the Minister of Justice and the Prosecutor General," and "I ask the President to take a greater interest and issue a directive to ensure that this case is definitely revealed through a special prosecutor."

Chairman Kim criticized, "Considering the recent behavior of the prosecution, I think this is not the first time hearing such remarks," and said, "It sounds as if there are government prosecutors and non-government prosecutors separately, and some prosecutors are on the side of the Minister of Justice while others are not, which is making headlines in the newspapers."
