[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] The People Power Party, which decided to request a full real estate investigation of all its affiliated lawmakers from the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission (ACRC), announced that Kim Ki-hyun, the acting party leader and floor leader of the People Power Party, stated, "There is absolutely no reason to be afraid or avoid it."

At the floor countermeasure meeting on the 11th, Acting Leader Kim said, "The People Power Party has decided to conduct a full real estate investigation of all lawmakers affiliated with the party through the ACRC." He added, "I believe we should be properly verified with a fairer and stricter standard and be judged by the people."

He said, "For the greater good, we decided to entrust the ACRC with a full investigation of all party members," but added, "However, doubts continue about whether the ACRC, where former Democratic Party lawmaker Jeon Hyun-hee serves as chairperson and former Moon Jae-in presidential campaign member Ahn Seong-wook serves as vice-chairperson, is truly impartial." He insisted, "The ACRC should exclude Vice-Chairman Ahn, who is from the Moon Jae-in presidential campaign, from duties during the full investigation."

He also said, "The People Power Party will be verified by the same standards as the Democratic Party and will actively cooperate with requests for data and explanations," and added, "Since the full investigation took three months, I expect the results of the full investigation of all 102 members to be received soon."
