Kim Tae-ho: "Yoon Seok-yeol, Just State the Conditions for Joining... Before the People Get Tired"
"Minsheng Tour Is Too Contrived"
"Democratic Party Bus Has Left, How Long Will the Debate Over Riding Continue?"
[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] Kim Tae-ho, a member of the People Power Party who is mentioned as a presidential candidate, directly criticized former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol on the 6th regarding his party entry issue. Instead of going around the issue, he pressured Yoon to rather present demands such as changes to the primary election rules.
On the 6th, Kim criticized a series of Yoon’s actions on social media (SNS) by saying, "‘Yoon Seok-yeol, do we have to taste it to know if it’s poop or soybean paste?’"
He pointed out, "Yoon is delaying his party entry indefinitely and just going around outside," adding, "He says he will decide whether to join the party after doing a livelihood tour, but that is too contrived and unwise." He continued, "Even with the first anti-nuclear power event, the public already knows how big the damage of the anti-nuclear power policy is, why it started, and what pressures there were," and asked, "If you say your political philosophy is the same as the People Power Party’s, then what on earth is the reason for delaying your party entry?"
Kim said, "I hope he rather presents conditions," and added, "It is right to request changes to the primary election rules or to meet with Representative Lee Jun-seok to present guidelines or conditions for party innovation and change." He continued, "The Democratic Party’s bus left long ago, so how long will we keep struggling over whether to get on the bus or not?" and said, "Yoon’s current behavior of just going around outside is no different from undermining party politics."
