[Asia Economy Reporter Geum Bo-ryeong] Aides of the People Power Party criticized Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Eui-gyeom, who raised suspicions about the 'Cheongdam-dong drinking party,' calling it the 'worst inquiry ever' and saying he should 'resign from his spokesperson position.'

The People Power Party Aides Council (Gukbohyeop) issued a statement on the 25th, saying, "It has been revealed that all of Kim lawmaker's allegations about the 'Cheongdam-dong drinking party' were false. This allegation by Kim Eui-gyeom was the worst National Assembly audit inquiry in history. As a staff member who prepared for the audit at the same time, I feel truly ashamed and embarrassed before the people."

Gukbohyeop continued, "Now there is even talk that 'Kim Eui-gyeom acted like Kim Eui-gyeom,' so there is nothing more to say," adding, "What is even more incomprehensible is that the Democratic Party itself joined in. The Democratic Party Supreme Council, with party leader Lee Jae-myung in attendance, actively supported Kim lawmaker's allegations."

Gukbohyeop also pointed out, "Kim lawmaker cowardly hid behind parliamentary immunity and mocked cabinet members and the president," and "Even after his wrongdoing was exposed, instead of reflecting, he said he would ask the same questions again if he could go back to that day, which is outrageous."

They emphasized, "This should not be brushed aside," and "Kim lawmaker should apologize to the public and resign from his spokesperson position."

Last month, Kim raised suspicions about a 'Cheongdam-dong drinking party' involving President Yoon Seok-youl and Justice Minister Han Dong-hoon during the National Assembly audit. However, when cellist A, who made the claim, recently testified to the police that it was a lie, Kim expressed regret a month after raising the allegations.
