與 "If Yoon Hee-sook Dislikes Mockery Over Resignation, She Should Leave the Party First"
[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] On the 29th, the Democratic Party of Korea criticized Yoon Hee-suk, a member of the People Power Party, saying, "If you dislike the resignation announcement being ridiculed, the sincere attitude of a politician is to first leave the party and then decide your political course based on the investigation results."
Lee Yong-bin, spokesperson for the Democratic Party, stated in a commentary on the same day, "On the 27th, Representative Yoon practically admitted his father's violation of the Farmland Act but is still stubbornly claiming fake news, mudslinging, and political attacks."
Spokesperson Lee pointed out, "Although Representative Yoon voluntarily requested an investigation by the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) and the Joint Security Headquarters, the National Police Agency’s National Investigation Headquarters had already received an investigation request from the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission and started a preliminary investigation," adding, "His self-request is not applicable to high-ranking officials and the CIO cannot investigate it, and since the National Investigation Headquarters is already conducting an investigation, it is a case of belated action." He continued, "If Representative Yoon was unaware, then the People Power Party neglected the matter; if he knew and still acted this way, it is a cunning trick. I am curious about Representative Yoon’s true intentions as he vents his frustration and throws tantrums at the wrong target."

Spokesperson Lee also criticized the People Power Party, saying, "What is the 'responsible politics' of the People Power Party that remains silent behind Representative Yoon’s shameless attitude toward real estate speculation?" He added, "The People Power Party, which remains silent about the real estate speculation allegations within its own ranks amid this Yoon scandal, must also bear political responsibility." Furthermore, he emphasized, "They should sincerely apologize to the public regarding the real estate speculation issue and start by disciplining their own house with a resolute attitude."
