[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Soyoung] On the 28th, Yoon Geon-young, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, strongly criticized Hong Joon-pyo, a presidential pre-candidate from the People Power Party, for his attitude during the MBC-hosted primary candidate debate, saying, "No matter how I look at it, I can only think that he is less of a human being."

On the 29th, Yoon posted on his Facebook, "In a public broadcast, even someone who wants to become the next president said 'Moon Jae-in, Moon Jae-in' against the incumbent president," expressing his view.

He said, "The vulgarity of candidate Hong Joon-pyo's attitude is shocking," and added, "Do you want to be chosen by the people while ignoring the president elected by the people? I hope you reflect on whether you are qualified for that."

Yoon also criticized the People Power Party debate, saying, "The collaboration between the eldest and youngest of the old generation is shocking," and "They are competing with each other, proudly showing that they are people of the old generation."

Regarding the investigation into the USB that President Moon gave to Chairman Kim Jong-un at the Peace House in Panmunjom during the April 27, 2018 inter-Korean summit, which was mentioned during the debate, Yoon said, "They are repeating the 'North Korea business' that they have been doing every election season without even knowing the exact facts," and claimed, "The USB controversy from the inter-Korean summit is an outdated story that the People Power Party already lost completely. It has been proven false through the remaining materials and government explanations."

He added, "The absurd fiction that it contained 'nuclear power plant construction' details, which led to talk of 'acts of treason' by former People Power Party leader Kim Jong-in, is now quietly put away in a drawer." He continued, "When election season comes, candidate Hong drags out these absurd fictions again, and candidate Yoon, who fails to point out the mistakes and goes along with it, are the same."

Furthermore, he said, "Why can't you coolly acknowledge that even if it was done by the Moon Jae-in government, if it was done well, it was done well?" and added, "Even President Biden, who shouted 'Anything but Trump,' accepted the positive results of President Trump's Singapore North Korea summit."
