"'If you are innocent, quickly appear before the prosecution,' beating the buk and banging the ggwenggwari"
"Democratic Party, Leader Lee Jae-myung will not waver... will soothe the people's livelihood"

[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] The Democratic Party of Korea responded to the government and ruling party's investigative pressure on Representative Lee Jae-myung by calling it a "confession of the behind-the-scenes forces trying to kill Lee Jae-myung."


On the 25th, Kim Eui-gyeom, spokesperson for the Democratic Party, said in a written briefing, "Following the Blue House, the People Power Party has confessed to being behind the prosecution's investigation."


Spokesperson Kim stated, "The Blue House has already threatened, saying 'If the prosecution submits each arrest warrant for Lee Jae-myung one by one, how long can a bulletproof National Assembly be possible?'" and added, "This showed that 'Yongsan' played a leading role at every stage of the planning, execution, and completion of the 'killing of Lee Jae-myung.'"


He criticized, "Today, even the People Power Party has revealed its true colors," and said, "They are beating drums and gongs, telling the leader of the main opposition party, 'If you are innocent, quickly appear before the prosecution.'"


He continued, "When you cannot identify the culprit, you should consider who benefits," and pointed out, "The people are now exhausted and groaning under the weight of life. The government and ruling party, who have neither the ability nor the will to care for this, are solely focused on killing the opposition party."


Spokesperson Kim emphasized, "We know that the continuous attempts to kill Lee Jae-myung are shallow tactics to cover up the incompetence and hypocrisy of power," and stressed, "The Democratic Party of Korea and Representative Lee Jae-myung will not be shaken."


He added, "We will soothe the livelihoods abandoned by the Yoon Seok-yeol government and the People Power Party and solve the economic crisis of high prices and high exchange rates together with the people."
