[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Juhee] Jang Sung-min, Chairman of the World and Northeast Asia Peace Forum, strongly criticized President Moon Jae-in, even mentioning 'impeachment,' in relation to the Cheonghae Unit mass infection incident.

Jang, who is mentioned as a presidential candidate from the opposition, wrote on Facebook on the 23rd, "Who are you? Which country's president are you, and what is your identity? For what reason on earth are you driving the people and the military into a living hell?" He questioned, "Is President Moon, who turned the great Korean army into a bloody living hell, truly the supreme commander of the military?"

Jang pointed out, "The absolute power of a nation is its military strength. The Constitution of the Republic of Korea grants this immense power to the president," adding, "This means that the president is the supreme commander of the 600,000-strong Korean army, and the president must take it as a mission to protect the lives and property of the people with this tremendous authority."

He continued, "A president who does not hold the supreme command of the military, or a president ignorant of this authority and unable to exercise it, is essentially a figurehead president," criticizing, "Is this a country where the military, which should appear as a savior when the people cry out for help in a crisis, instead screams for help toward the people?"

He then asked, "Aren't you afraid of how the 600,000-strong Korean army will view President Moon, the supreme commander of the military, after reading the Cheonghae Unit's struggle against COVID-19 involving a single crew member?" and "Is there no intention to give up or relinquish the authority of the supreme commander of the military even now?"

Jang emphasized, "The leaders of the ruling and opposition parties must immediately hold a representative meeting to discuss stripping President Moon, who turned the Korean army into such a miserable bloody living hell, of his status and authority as the supreme commander of the military. This essentially means impeachment," adding, "This is to prevent any more soldiers from screaming in the living hell."

He also stated, "The president must take responsibility for the military's cries caused by the surge of wounded soldiers, bow his head in apology to the people and the entire 600,000-strong military, and seriously consider relinquishing his status and authority as the supreme commander of the military. This essentially means resignation."
