[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Seul-gi] Former lawmaker Yoo Seung-min, a presidential pre-candidate from the People Power Party, criticized Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, saying, "What kind of decency does someone who said they would take off their pants have to talk about dignity?"


On the 1st, Yoo posted on his Facebook, saying, "Candidate Lee Jae-myung poured ridicule and sarcasm on our party's primary," making this remark.


Earlier that day, Candidate Lee posted on his Facebook, saying, "Talk about the future vision of the Republic of Korea, not about me," and criticized the People Power Party presidential pre-candidates by saying, "(In the People Power Party presidential primary TV debate) I have never properly heard a vision on how they intend to run Korea. There also seems to be no differentiated representative pledge imprinted on the public," and proposed having a policy debate.


Yoo continued, "Lee Jae-myung says he wants to have a dignified policy debate on real estate or basic income," adding, "Even though I have repeatedly said to have a final debate on fair income versus basic income, the person who ran away suddenly raises their voice, which makes me laugh bitterly."


Yoo also referred to the Daejang-dong development special favor allegations, saying, "Does the person responsible for making countless Seongnam citizens shed tears of blood through the real estate development corruption Daejang-dong gate have the qualification to debate real estate?"


He then pointed out, "Does Candidate Lee also use the word 'dignity'? No candidate in the People Power Party primary said they would 'take off their pants.'"


Finally, Yoo said, "If Yoo Seung-min becomes the (People Power Party presidential) candidate, I will properly show you policies, debates, morality, and dignity."
