[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] On the 15th, Kim Gi-hyeon, a member of the People Power Party, criticized Lee Jae-myung, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea, saying, "He is declaring his bid for party leadership on Constitution Day," calling it the height of arrogance.


On the same day, Kim posted on his Facebook, "With a record of four prior convictions, shamelessly running for president and running in a place where he has no ties as a 'shield candidacy,' embarrassing the people, and now even making Constitution Day shameful," he pointed out, "This is nothing but selfishness that throws away the minimum political justification and moral decency required of politicians."


He continued, "Receiving support from fanatic groups like the 'Gaeddal' and being called 'Eodaemyeong,' I congratulate Representative Lee, the 'shield leader,' on his anticipated election, but I regret that the judicial risks surrounding him will ultimately become risks for the Democratic Party," he remarked sharply.



Kim said, "During the last presidential election, I recall Lee's fierce threat to confine me, Kim Gi-hyeon, then floor leader of the People Power Party, to an Antarctic island, but seeing the current situation, I think Lee should be confined to an Antarctic island," adding, "Justice will prevail."
