He continued, "As the party leader, I will trust those words (from candidate Yoon)," and said, "I hope that the pattern of the foundation being shaken by a few anonymous interviews from so-called campaign staff members whenever candidate Yoon Seok-yeol and I try to improve the situation will no longer be repeated," thus addressing the controversy related to the 'impeachment remarks.'

Meanwhile, Shin Ji-ho, the political affairs director of Yoon's presidential campaign, sparked controversy on the 11th during an interview with CBS Radio's 'Hanpan Daegyeol' by saying, "Even if it is the party leader's decision, if it is not based on the constitution and laws, wouldn't impeachment be possible?"

In response, Lee posted on his Facebook the same day, saying, "Seeing that the impeachment topic is finally brought up, the continuous calls for boycott, passing-over controversies, and the purpose of the attacks become clear. I have never seen a campaign that continuously shakes the party leader ahead of the presidential election," expressing conflict with candidate Yoon.
