[Asia Economy Reporters Hyunju Lee, Hyunji Kwon] Jeong Jin-seok, Emergency Response Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, announced on the 27th that he will form a Special Committee for Organizational Strengthening and fill all vacant party district chair positions.


At the Emergency Response Committee meeting held that day, Chairman Jeong said, "We will form the Special Committee for Organizational Strengthening with Secretary-General Kim Seok-ki as the chairman and officially begin reorganizing the party's structure."


He emphasized, "Out of 253 party districts, 69 are accident districts, meaning 27% of the party district chair positions are vacant. We cannot operate the party with organizational leadership positions left empty if we want stable governance under the Yoon Seok-yeol administration and solid support from the ruling party."


Earlier, Chairman Jeong stated, "Yesterday, Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, mobilized 169 lawmakers and aides, along with 1,200 regional committee chairs nationwide, to hold a rally," and questioned, "The Democratic Party said they would fight with all their might, but who exactly are they fighting for?"



He then criticized, "They are covering up personal corruption allegations unrelated to the party involving Leader Lee Jae-myung," adding, "Is this going to be a continued display of hypocrisy and shamelessness, like the farting man getting angry?"
