Democratic Party Gwangju Branch Urges People Power to Promptly Join Itaewon Disaster State Audit

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Democratic Party of Korea's Gwangju Metropolitan City Party strongly criticized the People Power Party for showing a lukewarm attitude toward the Itaewon disaster state investigation.

On the 19th, the Democratic Party's Gwangju City Party issued a statement pointing out, "The reckless remarks and outrageous behavior of the People Power Party show no signs of stopping."

They stated, "Kim Sang-hoon, emergency response committee member of the People Power Party, made outrageous remarks expressing concern about the launch of the 10·29 Itaewon Disaster Citizens' Countermeasure Meeting, calling it 'disaster business.' On the day the 10·29 disaster state investigation began, the People Power Party did not participate in the investigation and once again drove a 'nail into the wounds' of the bereaved families," they claimed.

They continued, "This marks the peak of the continuous reckless remarks and outrageous behavior by the People Power Party and the Yoon Seok-yeol government over the past 50 days since the disaster," adding, "It is truly deplorable."

Furthermore, they urged, "Young people who had not even had the chance to live fully lost their lives amid the absence of the state. The People Power Party, as the 'ruling party government' responsible for the 10·29 disaster, must promptly participate in the state investigation."
