Kim shared a screenshot of an article showing Democratic Party lawmakers expressing sympathy for Lee’s declaration to waive his parliamentary immunity from arrest, saying, "On June 19, 2023, at the National Assembly, Lee promised the entire nation that he would waive his immunity from arrest and is the main culprit who told them to support the arrest motion."
