[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] Kang Deuk-gu, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea (affiliated with the Education Committee), on the 1st called Assemblyman Kwak Sang-do a "typical case of double standards" and demanded that he "resign from both the Education Committee and his assemblyman position."

On the 1st, during a procedural speech at the Education Committee's national audit, Assemblyman Kang said, "The National Assembly Education Committee, together with the Ministry of Education, is responsible for nurturing talent that will determine the nation's future for the next hundred years," adding, "Our youth refer to Assemblyman Kwak Sang-do as the ultimate example of 'dad's power' from the People Power Party. This is truly shameful for future generations."

He stated, "Around this time last year during the national audit, Assemblyman Kwak demanded the lecture evaluations of Moon Jun-yong at Konkuk University, where Jun-yong had been a part-time lecturer, insisting on verifying whether his position was due to 'dad's power' or based on the results of his teaching evaluations." Assemblyman Kang criticized, "Considering Assemblyman Kwak Sang-do's recent behavior, despite having been stricter than anyone else about 'dad's power,' this is a classic example of double standards," and pointed out, "The 5 billion won retirement bonus is more than that of the Samsung Life Insurance president and ranks fourth, slightly less than the Hyundai Steel vice chairman."

He questioned, "Assemblyman Kwak Sang-do, how much more will you frustrate our youth and workers with employment, wages, industrial accidents, and retirement bonuses?" and urged, "Representative Lee Jun-seok and the People Power Party should no longer protect Assemblyman Kwak Sang-do and must take responsibility for his expulsion from the National Assembly. This is the demand of the people and the call of the times."
