The Democratic Party of Korea, which has the right to decide whether to implement or suspend the financial investment income tax next year, seems to be in the final stage.

As early as this week, the party is expected to be caught, but the people's power has continued to pressure them to get out of the stigma of "Lee Jae-myung-se" by abolishing the party.

Until last week, the Democratic Party's leadership was determined to gather opinions within the party on whether to implement a financial investment tax for about a month, considering the October parliamentary audit period.

[Lee Hae-sik / Chief of Staff: We will remain faithful to the parliamentary inspection and collect opinions from lawmakers related to the financial investment tax,/ and ultimately decide how to decide through a general meeting of the National Assembly….]

However, in just a few days, the Democratic Party quickly turned to decide on the direction of the financial investment.

This week, we will hold a general meeting of lawmakers to set the stage for the party's debate.

[Cho Seung-rae / Senior spokesman for the Minjoo Party: If the parliamentary assembly is as early as the 4th or the 5th, or if the president exercises his veto right on the 4th, the plenary session should be held immediately. I have already mentioned and confirmed once again that we should conclude (the financial investment tax) as soon as possible.]

While delaying the decision, public opinion opposition due to market uncertainty continues, and it seems to be due to concerns that the front line could be blurred due to financial investment, not suspicions of Kim Gun-hee during the parliamentary audit.

In addition, the People's Power has joined the party leadership and the members of the Strategy and Finance Committee, which is a standing committee under the Financial Investment Tax, to launch a general offensive, urging the Democratic Party to "abolish it immediately."

[Donghoon / People's Power: The act of promoting uncertainty itself seriously harms Korea's capital market. / Don't we all know what the answer is? The answer is to abolish the gold tax.

[Choi Eun-seok / National Assembly Committee member, People's Power: There is no reason for Lee Jae-myung's Democratic Party to take on the misguided policy legacy of the past administration. Get out of the stigma of 'Lee Jae-myung' when it comes to gold fighting.]

Considering most of the leadership's grace stance, the Democratic Party is weighing on the observation that it will not implement the financial investment tax as scheduled.

However, even if the financial investment tax is not implemented immediately next year, various conclusions such as specific grace periods and prerequisites can be reached, raising interest in discussing the Democratic Party's general meeting.
