Lee Jun-seok, chairman of the platform policy committee of the New Reform Party (tentative name), criticized People Power Party emergency committee chairman Han Dong-hoon’s recent move to unify in the Honam region, saying, “The gold drawn by President Yoon Seok-yeol is actually meaningless if you’re going to run around within the fence.”
During an interview at the CBS ‘Approval Rating Meeting’ on the 5th, Chairman Lee Jun-seok responded to the host’s question, ‘Chairman Han Dong-hoon seems to have begun to expand his horizons with western policies following the attack on Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea.’ “It’s a question of whether it can be done,” he said.
Chairman Lee said, “I have made many suggestions to the President during the election process, but the President’s perspective on historical issues is somewhat clear,” and added, “On the May 18th (Gwangju Democratization Movement), he is considerably more confident than previous conservative party leaders.” “It’s forward-looking,” he said.
However, he said, “The President is a bit hesitant regarding the (Jeju) April 3 Incident,” and added, “The President attended the April 3 Memorial Ceremony when he was president-elect, and the following year, in early 2023, Prime Minister Han Deok-soo read a commemorative speech.”
At the same time, he recalled, “Since it was the April 3 Memorial Service, I expected something regarding the April 3 Incident, but he wrote a memorial speech regarding Jeju Island’s future food industry,” and added, “I was there at the scene, and the response was very poor.”
He then mentioned that many of the victims of Japanese military ‘comfort women’ passed away following the Park Geun-hye administration’s Korea-Japan comfort women agreement, and that the negotiating power with Japan has decreased, and predicted, “The deadline is approaching for the issues of April 3 and the Yeo-Sun Incident, to be honest.” did.

In addition, he said, “We need to take an active role in these issues, but if Chairman Han Dong-hoon attempts a conversation with history that goes one step further than President Yoon, I hope journalists will ask, ‘What is your perspective on April 3 or Yeo-sun?’” “It’s important,” he said.
Chairman Lee also said, “During the presidential election, when the Yoon Seok Train (a special train for the election campaign, Mugunghwa) stopped by Suncheon, we scheduled a trip to the ‘Yeo-Sun Incident Memorial Monument’ and had the President speak proactively, but he did not do so,” adding, “It is viewed negatively.” “It’s a shame,” he added.
At the same time, he said that President Yoon came under considerable attack following saying during the presidential election that “Chun Doo-hwan was good at politics,” and added, “It seems that he has slowed down and hesitated to move forward. It’s so unfortunate.”
