[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Joo-hee] Former Democratic Party lawmaker Son Hye-won once again made remarks that seemed to evaluate the appearance of Kim Gun-hee, wife of Yoon Seok-yeol, the People Power Party's presidential candidate.

On the 13th, Son shared a black-and-white photo of Kim on her Facebook and wrote, "I was just amazed by her enlarged pupils."

Earlier, on the 8th, Son had posted childhood and current photos of Kim side by side, stating, "I already knew her face had changed, but upon closer look, her pupils have become very large," seemingly raising suspicions of plastic surgery.

Despite criticism from even the ruling party that her remarks were inappropriate, she showed no sign of refraining and posted again about Kim's appearance.

On the same day, Son shared a Facebook post by former Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae along with Kim’s photo. Chu stated, "'Finding Julie' is not a face-finding game. Because one cannot stand falsely on the stage of public scrutiny," implying that thorough verification of Kim is inevitable.

She added, "Therefore, it is the people's right and the media's duty to thoroughly reveal how she has lived, what cunning lies she used to evade the law, what special favors and protection those in power have provided, and any involvement in crimes."

The People Power Party announced that they are taking legal action against defamation related to Kim. Heo Eun-ah, the party’s chief spokesperson, wrote on Facebook, "It is simply outrageous to see ruling party members publicly bringing up gossip-level talk from the marketplace," adding, "I believe a strong response with no leniency is necessary. The election campaign committee is currently proceeding with legal measures against all kinds of defamation related to Kim."
