Regarding the special prosecutor bill, he explained, "We have stipulated that the candidate will be recommended by a negotiation group not affiliated with the President, and if the President does not appoint the candidate within the deadline, the appointment will be considered finalized. This is to prevent any delay or obstruction in launching the special prosecutor."

He further added, "The special prosecutor will be given personnel and authority to respond to large-scale complex cases, and the investigation period will be guaranteed for up to 150 days. During this period, the statute of limitations will be suspended to prevent the truth from being buried due to time delays."

The scope of the special prosecutor's investigation will include: allegations of illegal bribery involving Democratic Party members; allegations of concealment and manipulation of the Min Junggi special prosecutor investigation; suspicions regarding a meeting and lobbying between the President and President Han Hakja; the death of a Yangpyeong County official; and allegations that Min Junggi, as special prosecutor, disrupted the capital market.

Floor Leader Song emphasized, "New revelations about the illicit connections between the Unification Church and the Democratic Party are emerging every day," and stressed, "We must uncover the full truth through the Unification Church Gate special prosecutor."

The People Power Party also urged the Democratic Party to cooperate in implementing 'a special prosecutor for Min Junggi,' 'a parliamentary investigation into the abandonment of the Daejang-dong trial appeal,' and the so-called 'two special prosecutors and one parliamentary investigation.' Floor Leader Song asserted, "Through the two special prosecutors and one parliamentary investigation, we will fully expose the power-related corruption of the Lee Jaemyung administration and the Democratic Party, who are hiding behind their overwhelming majority of seats to evade the truth."
