[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Kang Eun-mi, the floor leader of the Justice Party, who had been on a hunger strike for 23 days urging the enactment of the Serious Accident Corporate Punishment Act, was transferred to a hospital on the 2nd due to a deterioration in her condition.

According to the Justice Party, Kang complained of severe stomach pain that day, and medical staff waiting on site judged her condition to be serious, so she was transferred to Green Hospital in Jungnang-gu, Seoul, around 4:15 PM.

Kang began the hunger strike protest on December 11 last year together with Kim Mi-sook, chairperson of the Kim Yong-gyun Foundation and mother of the late Kim Yong-gyun, and Lee Yong-gwan, father of PD Lee Han-bit.

At the New Year's greeting event on the previous day, the first day of the new year, Kang appealed, "Please do not ignore the earnest wishes of the bereaved families who have stopped eating. Please promise to pass the Serious Accident Act."
