Jeong Junho, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea (representing Buk-gu Gap, Gwangju), strongly criticized Acting President Han Deoksoo on the 10th for his recent political actions, including the nomination of a Constitutional Court judge and the disclosure of phone conversations with U.S. President Trump.


On his social media that day, Jeong stated, "Han, the avatar of the insurrection ringleader Yoon Sukyeol, continues to commit repeated unconstitutional acts," and added, "The nomination of a Constitutional Court judge is not a power that an acting president can exercise."


He continued, "For the acting president to act as if he is the president and nominate a judge for the regime's protection is a political coup," and emphasized, "Immediately stop the act of planting martial law forces."


He also criticized Han as "an opportunist with no local ties who only uses Honam when it is convenient," warning, "Turning your back on your hometown and siding with the martial law forces will never be a source of honor."


Regarding the call from the People Power Party's Honam regional committee chair for Han to run for president, Jeong stated, "Some individuals who are still at the forefront to maintain the martial law forces at this very moment can never represent the democratic spirit of Honam," and added, "Han and other defenders of martial law should never dream of gaining Honam's support."


Jeong emphasized, "This presidential election is a fight against the far right that destroys the Constitution and against political opportunists," and declared, "I will continue to fight to the end, based on the Honam spirit of resisting injustice."
