Lee Jun-seok's New Party "Secures 40,000 Online Members in Four Days"
Party Formation Procedures Expected to Conclude This Week
Press Conference Scheduled at National Assembly on the 8th
Former People Power Party leader Lee Jun-seok's tentative 'Reform New Party' has secured over 40,000 members online alone within four days of recruiting party members.
On the 7th, Lee posted on Facebook, "We have surpassed 40,000," along with a photo of the Reform New Party Founding Preparation Committee homepage that read, "With 40,424 comrades."
This came just four days after he posted a party membership registration notice on his Facebook on the 3rd.
In addition to online recruitment, Lee and Reform New Party co-founding preparation committee chairs Cheon Ha-ram, Heo Eun-ah, and Lee Gi-in also conducted street recruitment activities in Daegu on the 6th.
The Reform New Party plans to complete the city and provincial party founding and registration application procedures as early as this week and hold the central party founding convention on the 20th.
