Minju on Han Dong-hoon's Acting Committee Chairman Speculation: "President Yoon's Avatar Emergency Committee"
"Absorbing the People Power Party into the Presidential Office"
"Will Only Raise the People's Will to 'Judge the Regime'"
The Democratic Party of Korea criticized the possibility of Minister of Justice Han Dong-hoon being appointed as the emergency committee chairman of the People Power Party on the 18th, calling it a 'Yoon Seok-yeol president avatar emergency committee.'
Chief spokesperson Kwon Chil-seung said at a National Assembly briefing that "pro-Yoon Seok-yeol lawmakers of the People Power Party are raising their voices to appoint Minister Han as the emergency committee chairman, calling him the 'driving force for victory in the general election,'" and added, "Handing over the party to the 'Yoon Seok-yeol avatar'?are they trying to merge the People Power Party into the presidential office?"

He continued, "The appointment of 'Yoon Seok-yeol avatar' Minister Han as emergency committee chairman will be a declaration of disregarding the people's suffering and focusing only on the president," and added, "If the People Power Party abandons its responsibility to the people and the ruling party's autonomy to become the president's personal guard, they should remember that the people's judgment will be even harsher."
After the Supreme Council meeting, Chief Spokesperson Kwon also told reporters, "There have been many reports about the speculation of Han Dong-hoon as emergency committee chairman, and if that happens, I would evaluate it as a 'Yoon Seok-yeol avatar emergency committee,'" pointing out, "Criticism is emerging that this is an emergency committee for prosecutor nominations or to reject the Kim Keon-hee special investigation."
Supreme Council members also joined the offensive during the meeting by mentioning the 'Han Dong-hoon emergency committee chairman speculation.'
Supreme Council member Jung Cheong-rae said, "There is speculation about 'Yoon Seok-yeol avatar' Han Dong-hoon becoming the emergency committee chairman," calling it "a truly mysterious regime." He emphasized, "If the plan is to have a real showdown from the perspective of 'whether to judge the Yoon Seok-yeol regime or not' in next year's general election, launching the 'Han Dong-hoon emergency committee' seems acceptable from the Democratic Party's standpoint."
