[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Kwon Eun-hee, floor leader of the People’s Party, criticized lawyer Jang Jin-young’s remarks against Ahn Cheol-soo, leader of the People’s Party, on the 15th, saying, “His habit of calling himself an ‘Anjalal’ (people who know Ahn Cheol-soo well) has resurfaced,” and added, “Looking at his actions since the People’s Party in 2016, he has been engaging in politics by criticizing the party leader or prominent politicians he belongs to.”


On the same day, Floor Leader Kwon said on CBS Radio’s ‘Kim Hyun-jung’s News Show,’ “First, he criticized Leader Ahn as ‘An Morning,’ then criticized former leader Yoo Seung-min as ‘Yoo Morning,’ and finally repeatedly criticized former leader Sohn Hak-kyu as ‘Sohn Morning,’ showing this sequence.”


He stated, “Former leader Yoo said at the time that he would join the Liberty Korea Party and kept doing ‘Yoo Morning’ daily, but when the general election came, he was the first to go. All his colleagues around him couldn’t help but laugh.”


He continued, “In fact, he cannot be called an ‘Anjalal,’ and there are a few people who quote and ride on lawyer Jang’s words, who claims to be an ‘Anjalal.’ It seems that many people have some interest in Leader Ahn regardless.”


Regarding the opposition unity in the Seoul mayoral by-election, Floor Leader Kwon said, “There is no possibility that the unity will break in this election,” and “Leader Ahn’s primary strategy is that there will be no three-way race.”



Floor Leader Kwon added, “I think it would be better to select a unified candidate through a certain process so that Seoul citizens can participate sufficiently and the election can be fought with united strength.”
