[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Seohyun] Singer Na Hoon-a said at a concert held at Daegu EXCO on the 16th, "What did I do to the pants of a person who was just standing still..."


On that day, Na performed the song `Gong` in a pansori style, exchanging words with the audience. During the song, he made a remark reminiscent of the so-called `pants remark` by Lee Jae-myung, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, who ran in the Democratic Party presidential primary.


As the political circle quoted his remark, it seems he was making a kind of humorous critique toward politicians during the performance.


Earlier, on the 5th, during the Democratic Party presidential candidate debate, Lee responded to Prime Minister Chung Sye-kyun's request to explain the scandal involving actress Kim Bu-seon by saying, "Shall I pull down my pants one more time?"


Lee Jae-myung, the Gyeonggi Province Governor and presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, is holding a non-face-to-face policy announcement press conference via video on the 18th.

Regarding Lee Jae-myung's `pants remark`, Na Hoon-a suffered from `fake news` related to an actress in 2008.


As media suspicions continued, Na held a press conference, climbed onto a table, and said, "Do you want me to show you directly?" while unbuckling his belt and attempting to pull down his pants. Lee's pants remark seems to have been an attempt to assert his innocence by comparing his situation to Na's.



Earlier, during the 2018 local elections, when Kim Bu-seon claimed that Lee had a mole on a specific body part, Lee underwent a physical examination at Ajou University Hospital in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, and announced that the medical staff found "no trace of a mole on the mentioned area."
