[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] The Democratic Party of Korea strongly opposed the People Power Party's allegations related to North Korean nuclear power plant construction, calling it a "loss of sense of reality."


On the 31st, spokesperson Shin Young-dae stated in a written briefing, "Most of the documents claimed to have been shredded to obstruct the audit of the early shutdown of Wolseong Unit 1 were produced during former President Park Geun-hye's administration," adding, "The People Power Party's imagination is laughably absurd."


Spokesperson Shin said, "Emergency Committee Chairman Kim Jong-in's shameless, outrageous scenario is being joined by Na Kyung-won and Oh Se-hoon, the Seoul mayoral pre-candidates," and expressed "deep regret toward the main opposition party, which has lost its sense of reality amid fluctuating approval ratings ahead of the by-elections."


He emphasized, "The idea of constructing a nuclear power plant in North Korea was first mentioned in 2010 during former President Lee Myung-bak's administration by Cheon Young-woo, the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade," and reiterated, "Most of the documents claimed to have been shredded to obstruct the audit of the early shutdown of Wolseong Unit 1 were produced during former President Park Geun-hye's administration."



Spokesperson Shin added, "According to Chairman Kim's logic, media outlets that advocated for North Korean nuclear power plant construction, including the Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye administrations, would all have committed acts of treason," and stated, "The Democratic Party will eradicate the ruinous color politics and North Korea scare tactics that divide public opinion."
