[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] On the 13th, the People Power Party maintained its stance on withdrawing the nominations of Im Hye-sook, Minister of Science and ICT, and Noh Hyung-wook, Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport candidates, despite Park Jun-young, nominee for Minister of Oceans and Fisheries, voluntarily withdrawing.

Kang Min-guk, spokesperson for the People Power Party, said to reporters after the party meeting, "There were more opinions among the members that the nominations of candidates Im and Noh, who have more issues than candidate Park, should also be withdrawn."

Spokesperson Kang added, "There are many problems overall with the Blue House's personnel appointments. In other words, there were opinions that the president should issue a public apology to the people regarding the overall personnel issues, including Lee Sung-yoon, Chief Prosecutor of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, and Park Beom-gye, Minister of Justice."

Meanwhile, Spokesperson Kang also revealed that there was discussion on how to fight if the Democratic Party of Korea forcibly proceeds with the prime minister's confirmation alone.
