[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] Kim Ye-ryeong, spokesperson for the People Power Party, stated in an oral comment on the 8th, "We pray for the repose of former Prime Minister Lee Han-dong, a towering figure in modern Korean history, and extend our sincere condolences to his bereaved family."


Spokesperson Kim said, "Having served as a six-term member of the National Assembly, Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly, and Prime Minister, he was called a living political textbook for his dedication to our people and his wholehearted efforts for righteous politics. We will never forget his example." He added, "As a parliamentarian who valued national unity, inclusive politics, dialogue, and compromise, he was a role model for many junior politicians. However, I cannot help but feel regret over the current ruling party's reckless behavior and the absence of cooperation in the National Assembly."



He continued, "The People Power Party will strive even harder to become a party that, following the late Lee Han-dong's will, thinks only of the people, practices steadfastness without cunning, and upholds political integrity through concession and compromise." He concluded, "Once again, we pray for the eternal rest of the late former Prime Minister Lee Han-dong."
