[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Choyoung] On the 22nd, So Byung-hoon, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, made a sharp remark regarding the controversy over the easing of the comprehensive real estate tax, saying, "The real estate issue is finally settling down. I hope unnecessary talk will stop."

On the same day, So stated on his Facebook, "Korea is a country of 52 million, not 520 thousand," referring to the fact that the number of apartment households subject to the comprehensive real estate tax with a publicly announced land price of 900 million KRW or more is 520 thousand households, which is 3.7% of the total.

He targeted the conservative opposition parties, saying, "After skipping 10 years following the Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun administrations, they distorted many things," adding, "Under the Moon Jae-in administration, efforts have been made to resume the work of the 'People's Government' and the 'Participatory Government' with difficulty."
