[Asia Economy Reporter Kim So-young] Kim Nam-guk, a member of the Democratic Party, joined the heated debate sparked by People Power Party lawmaker Kim Jae-won's participation in the Democratic Party's electorate.

On the 13th, Kim posted on his Facebook titled "Kim Jae-won Supreme Council Member, Mentioning Obstruction of Business Crime is Like a 'Miserable Dog'," stating, "If false information that differs from the facts causes confusion and risks infringing on the appropriateness or fairness of a specific task, obstruction of business crime can be established."

He emphasized, "If Supreme Council Member Kim Jae-won systematically incites many people to participate and causes distorted results in the Democratic Party's primary through false expressions of intent and reverse selection, obstruction of business crime can certainly be established."

He continued, "Nevertheless, the reason Kim Jae-won Supreme Council Member can speak so confidently and shamelessly must be because he has clearly sold his conscience somewhere," criticizing him.

He also criticized, "Come to think of it, Kim Jae-won Supreme Council Member was the Senior Secretary for Political Affairs under former President Park Geun-hye," adding, "Instead of reflecting on that time, his arrogance and hypocritical attitude from those days have appeared even more upgraded."

He raised his voice, saying, "There is nothing to expect from his even stronger shamelessness and conscience-less attitude. I just think a stupid person is brave, and a conscience-less person is shameless."

In response, Supreme Council Member Kim Jae-won directly hit back on his Facebook, saying, "The reason I opposed Lee Jun-seok's public office candidacy qualification test is because of people like this," adding, "They have many bad tricks and cannot be filtered out by a testing system."

He criticized further, "Unless a proper mental evaluation is conducted to weed them out, they will continue to self-replicate and increase their habitats."

Earlier, on the morning of the 11th, Supreme Council Member Kim posted on his Facebook a certification photo showing he applied to the Democratic Party's presidential primary electorate recruitment, saying, "So far, my heart goes to candidate Chu Mi-ae, who appeared on TV and sang 'Woman President' as her life song." The ruling party has continued to criticize this as behavior that violates political decorum.
