'Injunction Granted' Bae Hyunjin: "People Power Party Must Stop Regressing... Returning as Seoul Chapter Chair"
Jang Donghyeok Leadership Must Reflect and Restore Proper Party Operations
Bae Hyunjin, a member of the People Power Party, stated, “The People Power Party must stop regressing and move forward to the future,” after the court on March 5 granted her request for an injunction to suspend the effect of her party membership suspension.
Following the court's decision that day, Assemblywoman Bae held an emergency press conference at the National Assembly and expressed her position, saying, “I would like to thank the court for seriously considering my appeal to protect the democratic system of a public party.”
She also said, “The leadership under Jang Donghyeok, which has undermined the party’s democratic order, should reflect on their actions even now and run the party properly to secure victory in the local elections. I will turn back the clock for the People Power Party’s Seoul chapter, which has been at a standstill for nearly a month.”
When asked whether she would return as Seoul chapter chair, Assemblywoman Bae replied, “Yes,” and added, “Upon returning to the Seoul chapter, I will coordinate with other chairpersons on the candidate selection committee preparations, party membership eligibility reviews, and other pending issues.”
Bae further stressed, “There are also disciplinary cases involving pro-Han Donghoon lawmakers who participated in the Daegu event and People Power Party district heads in Seoul and the greater metropolitan area. As these cannot be immediately disciplined, the Central Ethics Committee must now operate in a normal and sound manner.”

On February 13, the party’s Ethics Committee imposed a one-year heavy disciplinary suspension of party membership on Assemblywoman Bae, then chair of the Seoul chapter, for allegedly infringing on child rights by posting a photo of a child—believed to be a family member of an internet user she had argued with—on social media. In response, Assemblywoman Bae filed for an injunction to suspend the effect of the disciplinary action, and the court ruled in her favor, suspending the enforcement of the penalty.
