[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Dong-joo] On the 23rd, Choi Jae-hyung, the People Power Party's presidential primary candidate, handed a proposal for a "Joint Meeting between Party Leader and Presidential Primary Candidates" to Lee Jun-seok, the party leader, at the National Assembly party leader's office to jointly oppose the media-related bill. Former Governor Choi stated, "Anyone can see that this regime is trying to muzzle the media that freely investigates and reports on power-related corruption at the end of its term with this malicious law," and explained, "If freedom of the press is restricted, our country's democracy will be equally diminished. I proposed a joint meeting of all candidates to the party leader because I believe all People Power Party candidates must unite to block this malicious law."



Former Governor Choi, who had maintained a "gentleman" image until now, is interpreted to have switched to an offensive mode starting with an attack on the 'Media Arbitration Act' as his support stagnated for a prolonged period.
