[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Dong-joo] Seo Byung-soo, Chairman of the People Power Party's National Committee, held a press conference at the National Assembly Communication Hall on the 31st to announce his resignation from the position of National Committee Chairman.


At the event, Chairman Seo stated, "As of this moment, I will step down from the positions of National Committee Chairman and Standing National Committee Chairman," adding, "I have consistently said that the leadership should not head in the direction of a provisional emergency committee."


He continued, "Former Representative Lee filed injunction requests to suspend the duties of each member of the emergency committee," and warned, "If the injunction is granted again, the party will be thrown into even greater chaos." He added, "As the National Committee Chairman, I believe we must not repeat the same mistake twice," and said, "My conviction is to prevent such incidents from happening in advance."



Meanwhile, Lee Jun-seok, former leader of the People Power Party, commented on Seo Byung-soo's sudden resignation as National Committee Chairman, saying, "Why is it that those who should take responsibility become increasingly enraged and raise their voices, while those with conviction have to leave their positions?"
