Third-term lawmaker Lee Won-wook and first-time lawmaker Cho Eung-cheon, who left the Democratic Party of Korea and joined the New Reform Party, announced on the 13th that they would run for Gyeonggi Hwaseong-eul and Namyangju-gap, respectively, in the current constituencies of the April 10 general election.
Representatives Lee and Cho held a press conference at the National Assembly on this day and said, “We will end hate politics and prove that a third-zone political party can succeed,” adding, “If possible, we will build a Namyangju belt and Hwaseong belt for the New Reform Party and aim to be elected together in the constituency.” “I will,” he said. The goal is to form a kind of ‘united front’ by running candidates for the New Reform Party in Hwaseong A-byeong and Namyangju Eul-byeong, which are not in his own constituency, and produce as many elected candidates as possible. Hwaseong and Namyangju are areas where the Democratic Party is strong, with Democratic Party candidates winning in all six constituencies in the general election four years ago. For this reason, internal competition is intensifying within the Democratic Party, with a large number of pro- and non-Myung faction members applying for nomination.
Lee Jun-seok, co-representative of the New Reform Party, said at the Supreme Council meeting held for the first time since the integration of the Third Zone, “We will stand tall as the clearest opposition party and become an alternative force,” and added, “The most active reform that the people want is the meaningless competition between President Yoon Seok-yeol and Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung. “The end of.” Representative Lee also said, “I will share the awareness of problems and solutions of the ‘New Reform Party’ (before integration) and we will well weave the awareness of problems and solutions of the newly joined members from ‘New Future’, ‘Principles and Common Sense’, and ‘New Choice’.” .
However, on CBS Radio the previous day, Representative Lee said of former lawmaker Ryu Ho-jeong, who joined the New Reform Party as a member of New Choice, “There are probably not many things I agree with regarding former lawmaker Ryu’s view on gender (feminism),” and “Ryu is on the list of proportional representatives.” “There is no possibility of the former lawmaker’s thoughts being mixed in,” he said. Regarding this, some within the party said, “If these remarks, made by Representative Lee out of awareness of the backlash from his core supporters, men in their 20s and 30s, accumulate, there might be a rupture in the nomination process.”
Regarding the appointment of the chairman of the nomination management committee, Representative Lee said, “There was no disagreement on the principle that it should be a person who is commonly trusted by each political faction, and it seems that the search will be made within that framework.” “The name of Kim Jong-in, former chairman of the People Power Party Emergency Response Committee, has not been mentioned. “It can meet the standards,” he said. Representative Lee also said on the radio the previous evening, “I would really appreciate it if former Chairman Kim would play his role.”
