[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] As the ruling on the injunction to suspend the effectiveness of the Emergency Response Committee, filed by former leader Lee Jun-seok, has been postponed for another week, voices within the party are calling to give the former leader some breathing room.

On the 23rd, Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the People Power Party, said on his Facebook, "We should not leave the fate of the party solely to the courts."

He stated, "The ruling on the injunction filed by former leader Lee Jun-seok keeps being delayed. This is an unprecedented situation in the history of political parties, and even the courts are in a difficult position," adding, "The court's continuous postponement of the injunction ruling is a signal to seek a political solution during this time."

Ha proposed, "Before the court's ruling is made, the party should first come up with a political solution," and suggested, "To do this, let's amend the party constitution to open the possibility of Lee's return. If the Emergency Response Committee's term is set to end when Lee's disciplinary action concludes, the emergency situation will naturally end, allowing the leadership elected by party members to resume their roles."
