[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Young-eun] On the 8th, Go Min-jung, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, said to Bae Hyun-jin, the floor spokesperson of the People Power Party, "I have once again confirmed that both Spokesperson Bae and the 'class' of the People Power Party he belongs to are exactly at that level."


On that day, Rep. Go shared an article containing Spokesperson Bae's remarks on her Facebook and said, "While reading the article about Spokesperson Bae Hyun-jin this morning, I once again confirmed that both Spokesperson Bae and the People Power Party he belongs to are exactly at that level."


Rep. Go said, "We often ask to maintain dignity, but dignity is not something you gain by learning with your head," adding, "It is created as the accumulation of a person's life history, philosophy, and perspective on others over a long time."


She continued, "Seeing him use the expression 'an irresponsible transient's excuse' toward his own party leader, I am confused whether to call him a 'spokesperson with insight who accurately reads reality,'" and pointed out, "Kim Jong-in's future looks pitiful."


Earlier, Spokesperson Bae, regarding Kim Jong-in, the emergency committee chairman of the People Power Party, and his public apology about former Presidents Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye, called Kim's remark that "If I am not allowed to apologize, I cannot continue as emergency committee chairman" a "defense of an irresponsible transient."



Spokesperson Bae also addressed Chairman Kim, saying, "Please faithfully fulfill the duties of the emergency committee and do not behave lightly as a chairman with the status of party leader," and criticized, "The chairman frequently says he will 'throw in the towel,' but that is not the attitude of an adult."
