[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyung-min] Prosecutor General Han Dong-hoon responded to Choi Kang-wook, a Supreme Council member of the Democratic Party of Korea, who criticized him by saying he "abuses complaints and accusations," by saying, "Is it because he is a ruling party power figure that he should just endure even if stabbed first?"


According to the legal community on the 6th, Prosecutor Han issued a statement the day before, criticizing, "If I stay still, they will think it's okay and continue doing this to other weaker people."


He added, "It has long been that the public no longer seriously listens to people like Choi Kang-wook and Chu Mi-ae, but they will be shocked and displeased by the feudal-era mindset that 'complaining against the ruling party leader is rude and insolent.'"


Prosecutor Han also said, "If they really have something to say to me, I hope the ruling party lawmakers will not cowardly hit and run in a relay baton style but call me to the National Assembly."


Earlier, on the previous day, Council member Choi said on YTN Radio about Prosecutor Han, "This person politically biases his position and treats complaints, accusations, and threats as a kind of hobby to defend his stance."



Prosecutor Han has recently been engaged in verbal exchanges with ruling party figures, including warning of legal action when Democratic Party leader Song Young-gil raised suspicions about communications between Kim Geon-hee and himself.
