[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Former Liberty Korea Party leader Hong Joon-pyo criticized the Democratic Party of Korea on the 13th, saying, "They passed the May 18 distortion law but rejected the Cheonan sinking distortion law, which follows the same pattern, claiming it infringes on freedom of expression."
On the same day, Hong said on Facebook, "They passed the leaflet law against North Korea as directed by Kim Yo-jong, First Deputy Director of the Workers' Party of Korea, and passed the Corruption Investigation Office law through two instances of hasty voting."
