Lee Jae-myung, chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea, proposed the formation of a consultative body in which the National Assembly and the government participate together as a countermeasure to deal with the chaos in state affairs following the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol.

Han Deok-soo, the acting president of the martial law scandal, asked for a neutral state administration, saying he would hold off on the impeachment of Han Deok-soo, the suspect of the martial law scandal, which is interpreted as a sign that he will not miss the initiative of the political situation.

Representative Lee Jae-myung, who volunteered to hold a press conference the day after President Yoon's impeachment, stressed that normalization of state affairs should be the top priority of the political community.

He proposed the formation of a national stability consultative body with the National Assembly and the government, saying that the economy and the trust of the international community, which have become unstable due to the martial law crisis, should be restored as soon as possible.

The opposition party hinted that it would be a pillar of state administration at a time when the president's job was suspended, but it also revealed that it spoke with acting Han Deok-soo shortly after the impeachment was passed.

He urged neutral state affairs, saying it is meaningless to divide the ruling and opposition parties, and warned them not to go beyond the limits of the agency.

It is interpreted as a pressure not to veto the Insurrection Special Prosecutor Act or the Special Prosecutor Act of Kim Gun-hee, which passed the National Assembly.

In order not to cause confusion in state affairs, he said he would not go through impeachment proceedings against an acting president accused of rebellion.

He emphasized bipartisan cooperation, saying, "Let's discuss the creation of an additional budget to revive sluggish domestic demand, and National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-sik also strengthened Lee's proposal.

{President Yoon's impeachment has intensified the internal strife of the people, forcing the political leadership to focus on the Democratic Party and Representative Lee.

Lee is expected to continue his move as a de facto presidential candidate by focusing on stabilizing state affairs and people's livelihoods for the time being.
