On the 9th, the People Power Party targeted Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, stating, "The biggest risk for the Democratic Party in the general election phase is Lee's careless words."


Ho Joon-seok, spokesperson for the People Power Party, released a statement that day saying, "Lee, who tried to divert public attention from the ongoing nomination controversies within the Democratic Party to the People Power Party, has been triple indicted for repeatedly uttering falsehoods."


Spokesperson Ho criticized, "Only pro-Lee figures who compare Lee to King Jeongjo of the Joseon Dynasty and praise him as more handsome than Cha Eun-woo surround him, making it difficult for him to face reality."


He added, "Unverified lies spoken out of desperation will only backfire on him, and Lee must take full responsibility for the words he uttered to cover up the malfunctioning nomination system."

Park Jeong-ha, chief spokesperson for the People Power Party, also pointed out, "Lee is insulting the people through extreme divisiveness."


Chief spokesperson Park stated, "The term '2jjik,' used derogatorily in opposition-leaning online communities to refer to those who voted for candidate number 2 in the last presidential election, was casually used by Lee while greeting citizens and officials, revealing his perception of the people."

He continued, "Criticizing others simply because of differing political views will only drive our politics back into division and old habits. The People Power Party will change the harmful effects of factional logic, divisiveness, and other wrongful behaviors in politics."
