[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Jang Je-won, a member of the People Power Party, criticized the forced appointment of the Ministry of Justice deputy minister, saying, "The Moon administration has reached a dead end."

On the 2nd, Jang stated on Facebook, "The administration has reached a dead end after recklessly trying to oust the Prosecutor General by ignoring laws and procedures."

That morning, he advised the administration to "immediately cancel the disciplinary committee for Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol," but the Blue House plans to appoint a new deputy minister of justice as early as today and push forward with Yoon's disciplinary action.

In response, Jang criticized the Blue House, saying, "If the public, the judiciary, and the inspection committee all say it was wrong, they should acknowledge, reflect, apologize, and correct it. It seems difficult to even find two prosecutors to join the disciplinary committee, yet they insist on appointing the deputy minister of justice and proceeding with the disciplinary process against Prosecutor General Yoon."
