Rep. Kang Ki-yoon, secretary of the National Assembly Health and Welfare Committee, and Rep. Lee Jong-seong, member of the Welfare Committee, submitted a disciplinary bill once morest Rep. Shin to the National Assembly Legislation Division this morning. Rep. Kang met with reporters and explained, “I submitted a disciplinary proposal for violating the obligation to prohibit abuse of authority and maintain dignity as stipulated by the National Assembly Act.” Rep. Lee said, “I judged that there was a serious problem with the series of actions that Rep. Shin showed.” He has no choice but to judge it as an intended political show that cannot be considered a mistake,” he pointed out.

The power of the people insisted that not only Congressman Shin, but also Myongji Hospital should be included in the government investigation. Rep. Lee said, “(Myongji Hospital) is known to have received a call from Congressman Shin (requesting a doctor car ride)” and “Since we need to confirm how Myongji Hospital sent the Dr. Car to Congressman Shin’s house, the hospital should of course be included as a witness. ” he said. Congressman Shin is a former doctor at Myongji Hospital.

Rep. Kang also said, “There is a story that the person who rode the ride was the husband, so the family should also be adopted as witnesses.”
