[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Park Soo-young, a member of the People Power Party, criticized Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, for his call to publicly disclose the portraits and list of victims who died in the Itaewon accident, saying it is "to avoid judicial risk."

On the 10th, Park said through his social network service (SNS), "Regarding the call to disclose the list and portraits of the Itaewon victims, the Democratic Party spokesperson and the party leader are out of sync."

He added, "The day before yesterday, Oh Young-hwan, the Democratic Party floor spokesperson, issued a statement saying, 'It is an inappropriate opinion, and the very idea of discussing such an opinion within the party is impossible.' However, yesterday, the party leader said, 'The names and portraits of the victims should be disclosed,' showing a lack of coordination."

Park said, "Yes, Lee is someone who goes beyond reasonable judgment and imagination. It is solely to avoid his own judicial risk," implying that the disclosure of the victims and the list is also intended to avoid judicial risk.
