The Jeonnam Provincial Chapter criticized, "Mokpo Station is a sacred site of democracy in Jeonnam, where President Kim Dae-jung's release and opposition to martial law were once demanded," and added, "The anti-impeachment rally disguised as a national emergency prayer meeting is false agitation that mocks the people of Jeonnam."

They continued, "There is not a single inch of room for forces sympathetic to insurrection in Jeonnam, the heart of democratic spirit," and emphasized, "For the restoration of democracy and a new Republic of Korea, we will do our utmost to swiftly impeach the ringleaders of the insurrection and establish a democratic government centered on Honam through an early presidential election."

Meanwhile, Save Korea, a conservative Christian organization, and a civic group have reported plans to hold an anti-impeachment rally at Mokpo Station Square from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the 22nd.
