[Asia Economy Reporters Oh Ju-yeon and Park Joon-yi] The Democratic Party of Korea immediately reacted against the prosecution's renewed attempt to search the Democratic Research Institute on the 24th, holding an emergency party caucus at 10 a.m. that day to devise a response. At the same time, the scheduled National Assembly audits by each standing committee were consecutively postponed.

On that day, Park Hong-geun, the floor leader of the Democratic Party, sent a notice message to each lawmaker stating, "An emergency party caucus will be held at 10 a.m. on the 24th, so I ask all members to attend the meeting without fail."

In an earlier notice message, Floor Leader Park said, "The Yoon Seok-yeol prosecution is attempting to search the central party office again," and added, "Key party officials and deputy floor leaders, please gather at the party office immediately. Other lawmakers should proceed with the National Assembly audit as scheduled and remain on standby at the National Assembly until further instructions."

However, as the situation rapidly changed in the morning, the party caucus was convened, and accordingly, most of the National Assembly audits scheduled at the same time were temporarily postponed.
