Handonghun Suhonaseon WithHooni, Directly Creating the People's White Paper

National White Paper Board Uploads Over 140 Posts in Two Days
"The Cause of the General Election Defeat Lies with President Yoon, Not Han Dong-hoon"

The fan club 'WithHooni' of Han Dong-hoon, former Emergency Response Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, is creating a national white paper to defend former Chairman Han. This initiative comes after the general election white paper survey included questions that seemed to target former Chairman Han.

According to the WithHooni fan cafe on the 16th, over 140 posts were uploaded within two days on the cafe's 'National White Paper' board. The cafe operator, who created the party board the previous day, wrote, "Everyone is filled with anger and disappointment over the general election white paper. However, if we only feel anger and disappointment, we cannot create any new future. We intend to capture the people's voices here and leave a national white paper."

The national white paper is scheduled to be completed by the 31st, with cafe members freely posting analyses of the causes of the general election defeat. Most members wrote that the cause of the People Power Party's defeat was not former Chairman Han but President Yoon Seok-yeol. They pointed to factors such as the timing of the announcement to increase medical school quotas coinciding with the general election, the appointment of former Minister Lee Jong-seop as ambassador to Australia, and the controversy over Daepa as influencing the election loss.

There were also analytical posts stating that the Democratic Party of Korea's pledge to provide 250,000 won was effective. While these members criticized the 250,000 won pledge as a populist policy, they concluded that the pledge worked because some voters respond favorably when money is offered.

WithHooni's move to create the national white paper is interpreted as a response to the ruling party's general election white paper survey questions, which included questions such as "Was the Han Dong-hoon one-top system effective?" Some have pointed out that the general election white paper seems to be trying to place responsibility on former Chairman Han. Indeed, posts such as "Why blame former Chairman Han for the general election defeat?" and "Why is the judgment on Lee Jae-myung and Cho Kuk the cause of defeat?" have appeared on the WithHooni cafe.

Hwang Woo-yeo, Emergency Response Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, reportedly told Cho Jeong-hoon, Chairman of the General Election White Paper Special Committee, "Rather than focusing on identifying specific individuals in discussing election responsibility, I asked to create a future-oriented approach on how the People Power Party can become a winning party again in upcoming elections."

Meanwhile, the General Election White Paper Special Committee plans to conduct in-depth interviews with former Chairman Han Dong-hoon and former Party Secretary-General Jang Dong-hyuk, who led the 22nd general election, to prepare the white paper.
