[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Former Dongyang University professor Jin Joong-kwon directly targeted Gyeonggi Province Governor Lee Jae-myung, who is embroiled in allegations of preferential treatment in the Daejang-dong development in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, on the 4th, saying, "It seems like it will be Jo Guk Season 2."

On the same day, Jin posted on his Facebook, "I can tolerate lying, but I cannot tolerate those who stubbornly insist that falsehoods are facts even though the truth is already clearly revealed," he said.

He pointed out, "A representative example is Jo Guk," adding, "At that time, Jo Guk was the unofficial presidential candidate of the ruling party and the successor to Moon Jae-in. If that were not the case, neither the Democratic Party nor its supporters would have carried out a nationwide scam with him. From the perspective of pro-Moon factions, he was the only 'alternative,' so they absolutely could not give up on him."

He continued, "Now, Lee Jae-myung is Jo Guk. Since he is virtually confirmed as a presidential candidate, it is impossible to give up now," and said, "Even if he tells obvious lies, he has no choice but to insist on them as facts until the end to deceive voters. There is no other alternative."

He also pointed out, "Although criticism of Lee Jae-myung is currently joined by supporters of Lee Nak-yeon during the primary, once he becomes the presidential candidate, many of them will become the so-called 'one team' and join Lee Jae-myung's nationwide scam," adding, "Then the curtain rises on Jo Guk Incident Season 2."

Former professor Jin said, "It took two years for the fake certificate to be recognized as fake. During that time, how tired were the people of listening to that nonsense," and added, "We have to endure that agony again for the next few months. We are already exhausted from fighting lies, but we have to fight again."

He then said, "'This is the largest public interest recovery project since Dangun,' 'It is a high risk, high return project,' 'There was no choice but public-private joint development,' 'We recovered money that could not have been recovered through private development,' 'Yoo Dong-gyu is not my aide,' 'The essence is the People Power Party gate,' and so on?Lee Jae-myung's camp endlessly repeats lies that have already been refuted as false,"

He continued, "No matter how much you refute with facts and logic, they will not stop lying. Those lies are lies with their lives and livelihoods at stake," and said, "It is really exhausting. But we must not give up out of fatigue."

Furthermore, he criticized, "Those lies may persuade supporters. Supporters eagerly await such lies from the camp," adding, "For followers of pseudo-religions, what matters is not truth or falsehood but maintaining faith. The destruction of faith is, for them, the end of the world."

Finally, he said, "It does not seem likely to work on the moderate or undecided groups. They have no reason to believe the lies of Lee Jae-myung's camp," adding, "Therefore, the world will be split into those who believe Daejang-dong is an 'achievement' and those who think it is 'corruption.'"

Meanwhile, regarding the Daejang-dong allegations, Governor Lee said on the 3rd, "Rather, it proves my integrity and politics for the people."

After the presidential primary in the Incheon region, he met with reporters and said, "I believe in the collective intelligence of the people, respect the will of the people, and will strive to create a right world through right politics that exercises the authority entrusted by the people for their benefit."

He explained, "Although there are distractions trying to shake things, the main stream and core of the Daejang-dong incident is that the People Power Party tried to monopolize development profits, but a basic local government head from the opposition party fought fiercely and returned part of the development profits to the people," adding, "The people will evaluate such efforts and determination."
