On the 18th, former Congressman Na Gyeong-won, who is struggling with the challenge for party power, went into the django once more, leaving the door unanswered. Following the presidential office’s ‘public warning’ and the first-time lawmakers’ ‘non-running court’, he received a report card of a drop in approval ratings, facing the biggest challenge for the party.
Former lawmaker Na completely canceled the schedule for the Daejeon City Party’s New Year’s greetings scheduled to attend this followingnoon. On his way out of his home this morning, former lawmaker Na met with reporters and said, “I have nothing to say,” and did not respond to the presidential office statement or whether or not to run.
The voices criticizing former lawmaker Na are getting louder and louder. The number of additional supporters of the first-term election statement asking former lawmaker Na to apologize to President Yoon Seok-yeol increased to 50. Re-elected lawmakers also reviewed the statement criticizing former lawmaker Na, but decided to put it on hold for now.
The heads of regional organizations belonging to the People’s Power also poured crossfire on former lawmakers. South Chungcheong Province Governor Kim Tae-heum criticized Na on Facebook, saying, “Are you a jangdolbanger who shows his face when you buy something?” Hong Joon-pyo, mayor of Daegu, wrote, “It would be very difficult for a couple to break things only out of a desire to succeed rather than in a good way.” It seems to be aimed at the ‘Supreme Judge’ theory of former lawmaker Kim Jae-ho, the husband of the Seoul High Court. He also raised suspicion, saying, “I heard that there was a building speculation problem during the verification process last year (ministerial candidate), but it is first to clarify it.”
Rep. Chul-soo Ahn held the launching ceremony for the ‘170V’ camp at the Central Party building on the same day. ‘170V’ means that we will take half of the 121 seats in the metropolitan area and win by winning 170 seats in the general election next year. Four incumbent lawmakers attended the inauguration ceremony, Lee Myung-soo, Lee Yong-ho, Choi Yeon-suk, and Ji Seong-ho, in contrast to the earlier ceremony of Rep. Regarding the background of relatively few incumbent lawmakers attending, Rep. Ahn explained, “I didn’t call them on purpose,” and “I tried to share their concerns mainly with young people, but I am really grateful that there are many people who came on their own.”
Rep. Ahn gave a presentation on his own vision and prospects, citing the era of science and technology hegemony as the reason why he should become the party leader. Rep. Ahn said, “The transition committee announced 110 state affairs tasks, but did any disagreement or controversy arise? There is absolutely nothing,” he criticized the conflict between former lawmaker Na and the president’s office indirectly. He continued, “It is half true to say that this general election will be held in the face of President Yoon, but then isn’t it that the party does not have to play a role? He kept Congressman Kim in check, who leaned on ‘Yunsim’, saying, “The party must do plus alpha.”
