Jo Jeonghun "New party probability rising 1% daily? Measuring global warming?"
"If Lee Sang-min Comes, We Must Bring Him In with a Record-Breaking Price"
Former People Power Party (PPP) leader Lee Jun-seok, who is reportedly pushing for the creation of a "new party," set December 27 as the "deadline" and said that "the probability of founding the new party increases by 1 percentage point each day." Jo Jeong-hoon, a member of the Transition Korea party who plans to join the PPP, criticized this, saying, "This is not measuring global warming, so how can it increase by 1% every day?"
On the 17th, Jo said on BBS's "Jeon Young-shin's Morning Journal," "If former leader Lee actually establishes a new party, I think it would just be Bareunmirae Party Season 2, nothing more. It will have no scalability."
Regarding Lee’s earlier speculation about Minister Han Dong-hoon becoming the emergency committee chairman, Jo said, "Instead of predicting that 'Minister Han Dong-hoon is being carpeted,' former leader Lee should focus on the legal requirements for creating a new party and recruiting party members." He added, "The possibility of him becoming the emergency committee chairman is less likely than me winning the lottery today."
He continued, "Those who have already decided to part ways and are taking action do not hold regrets. They do not discuss the house they left behind but think about how to live a new life. However, the current actions and remarks seem like people who have decided to break up are saying, 'Please hold on to me,' or something like that," he added.

Regarding Lee Sang-min, a member of the Democratic Party, keeping open the possibility of joining the PPP, Jo said, "If he comes, I will be the first to welcome him with open arms. If he enters the market as a free agent (FA), currently a player belonging to the Democratic Party, and becomes a free agent, the PPP can offer the most unprecedented cost and value to bring him in," he said.
