Yang Geum-hee "Kim Myeong-su Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Must Be Impeached Immediately"
"The Chief Justice Leads Intimidation of the Bench"
[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyun-joo] On the 4th, Yang Geum-hee, a member of the People Power Party, stated, "Chief Justice Kim Myung-soo must be impeached immediately."
In a statement released that day, Rep. Yang said, "The Chief Justice, who should unwaveringly protect the independence and neutrality of the judiciary, has taken the lead in intimidating the judiciary on behalf of the regime's courts."
He also said, "I cannot contain my shock and anger at the outrageous fact that he lied to the entire nation." He pointed out that Chief Justice Kim's remark that 'legal matters aside, political situations must be considered' is an act that abandons even the minimum morality and conscience.

Rep. Yang emphasized, "Even in a situation where the Democratic Party is pushing for the unprecedented impeachment of judges in constitutional history, Chief Justice Kim, who has tarnished the dignity of the judiciary with cowardly silence and shameful lies rather than just and righteous voices, is unqualified as the head of the judiciary," adding, "He should resign immediately, but Chief Justice Kim, who is not even qualified to be allowed a choice, must be impeached immediately in the name of the people."
