[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Kim Eun-hye, a member of the People Power Party and head of the party's election campaign public relations team, directly criticized the 'Daejang-dong Development Project Special Favor Allegations' surrounding Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, on the 1st, saying, "Is Daejang-dong the greatest achievement since the era of Dangun? Or is it the greatest scam?" Kim, whose constituency is Bundang-gu Gap, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi Province, which includes Daejang-dong, has been active as a 'Daejang-dong sniper.'


On the same day, Kim appeared as the fifth TV endorsement speaker for the People Power Party on SBS and mentioned the Daejang-dong allegations, saying, "Daejang-dong was land where the original inhabitants peacefully farmed, passed down from ancestors for generations," and "In the place where the original inhabitants were displaced, a money feast by the Daejang-dong gang unfolded."


She continued, "The beloved land of the original inhabitants and the pre-sale funds that residents saved their whole lives became the seed money for Hwacheon Daeyu and Cheonhwa Dongin," and claimed, "The person who authorized all this was Lee Jae-myung, then mayor."


She said, "This project started with Lee’s declaration to return unearned income to the citizens. Lee even confessed to designing Daejang-dong himself, but now he claims it was the work of Yoo Dong-gyu and Kim Man-bae," criticizing him.


Kim questioned, "According to a recording from April 17, 2013, Lee told Yoo Dong-gyu, even drawing a picture, that if he had just 100 billion won, he wouldn’t care about Daejang-dong or anything else. What kind of picture did Lee draw when he met Yoo Dong-gyu, whom he said was not his close aide? And what was the intention behind saying he wouldn’t care about Daejang-dong if he had 100 billion won?"


She added, "What will happen to South Korea if Lee becomes president?" and criticized, "If, while claiming to recover unearned income, the homes of the underprivileged are taken away and apartments are built there for the president’s close aides to earn thousands of billions of won in profits, it is dizzying."


Kim also appealed, "Should we choose as the leader of South Korea a cowardly leader who denies problems, ignores the death of a subordinate who devoted his youth to the Daejang-dong project and even accompanied him on overseas trips for his own sake?" and "Should the people elect as president someone who shows no guilt after eating sushi with a corporate card regardless of the project and who is always confident even when employing a young man, someone’s precious son, like a servant? I ask the people to think about this together."



Furthermore, she said, "To our sons and daughters, to the teachings given by parents, a society where hard work is surely rewarded, please achieve this in the name of candidate number 2, Yoon Seok-yeol of the People Power Party, on March 9," emphasizing, "I believe a national leader should be chosen by looking at the life they have lived, not just their words. Candidate Yoon has fought against corruption that has tormented and plundered the people for the past 26 years."
