After a while, the plenary session of the "Amendment to the Rules of the Permanent Special Prosecutors' Office" was processed
The ruling party "violates the principle of separation of powers, attempts to make it unconstitutional"
Choo Kyung-ho said, "Lee Jae-myung still repeats retaliatory politics."

In a little while, the National Assembly's plenary session is expected to deal with the revision of the rules regarding the recommendation of candidates for the permanent special prosecution.
The ruling party is strongly opposed to the special prosecution of the investigation involving the president or his family, which calls for excluding the right to recommend the ruling party.
I'm connecting with the National Assembly reporter, reporter Lim Sung-jae!

Yes, it's the National Assembly.

The People's Power is protesting that the revision of the permanent special prosecution rules promoted by the Democratic Party is unconstitutional, right?
[Reporter]
Yes, it is expected that the Democratic Party of Korea will pass the revision of the rules of the permanent special prosecution at the plenary session of the National Assembly soon.
The revision includes excluding two ruling party recommendations from the composition of a standing special prosecution candidate recommendation committee consisting of seven people in the investigation of the president and his family.
People are protesting that the power of the people is an unconstitutional attempt that violates the principle of separation of powers.
Earlier, floor leader Choo Kyung-ho said at a morning meeting that Lee Jae-myung wanted to do politics where he coexisted, and repeatedly criticized the politics of retaliation.Let's listen to
[Choo Kyung-ho / People's Power Floor Leader: The fact that the independent counsel law and the permanent special prosecution will be pursued simultaneously is a confession that the independent counsel will continue to be politically abused.]
It is highly likely that the revision of the rules understated in numbers will be passed at the plenary session, and since it is not subject to the president's right to request reconsideration, it will be implemented immediately after the plenary session is processed.
Starting with the revision of the rules of the permanent special prosecution, the Democratic Party plans to increase the level of pressure on Kim's suspicion by re-voting the special prosecution on the 10th of next month.
Next month, he will report the impeachment motion of three prosecutors, including Lee Chang-soo, head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, and then push for a resolution, and finally re-vote the Kim Special Prosecutor Act.
Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the Democratic Party, said in a morning meeting that the Democratic Party would fight, work, and fight, signaling an all-out offensive in the future.Let's listen to
[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: We will also pursue impeachment of prosecutors who exonerated (Kim on suspicion of manipulating stock prices). The Democratic Party will always fight with the people while working and working.

In the midst of this, there were media reports that representative Han Dong-hoon expressed his intention to consider dealing with the Special Counsel Act on Mrs. Kim, so please tell us about the representative's reaction to this.
[Reporter]
The content of the controversial report is that representative Han Dong-hoon told his aides that he could consider a "major decision" in the Kim Special Counsel Act, which is pushed by the opposition party.
Amid the factional conflict over the party's bulletin board controversy, close lawmakers are likely to vote in favor of the special prosecution's re-vote next month.
First of all, a representative flatly said he never said it as if it were in the report.Let's listen to
[Han Dong-hoon / Representative of People's Power: (There was a report that said we should answer the special prosecution law, is it correct?) I said that? (Yes.) I didn't say that.]
Rep. Chin also told YTN on the phone that Han was upset by a series of attacks within the party, but he did not ask to use it as a kind of "card."
In particular, he added that linking the issue of the party's bulletin board with the independent counsel law would make representative Han shameful.
Other close acquaintances also dismissed it as nonsense, saying it seemed like a knight who went too far.
However, the internal feud continues as pro-Yoon-gye urged the author of the controversy over the party's bulletin board to reveal whether the representative's family is Han's.
Kwon Sung-dong, a member of the People's Power, pointed out at a seminar this morning that it is not a party member nor Yongsan, but a representative Han Dong-hoon who is responsible for solving the recent issue of the party bulletin board.
However, floor leader Choo Kyung-ho told reporters after the general meeting of lawmakers that he agreed to refrain from making public remarks for the time being and watch the situation calmly as the police investigation is underway.

The ruling and opposition parties also held an urgent question on the Sado mine in Japan at the National Assembly's Foreign Affairs and Unification Committee, right?
[Reporter]
The National Assembly's Foreign Affairs Committee was briefed by Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yeol on how the South Korean government decided not to attend the recent Sado mine memorial ceremony in Japan.
There were differences in the level of both ruling and opposition lawmakers, but many viewed the incident as a "diplomatic failure."
At the meeting, Minister Cho Tae-yeol reiterated his responsibility as a minister for failing to carry out our arguments in consultations with Japan and making the decision not to participate.
However, lawmakers from the ruling and opposition parties criticized the complacency of the foreign authorities.Let's listen to
[Yoon Sang-hyun / People's Power: You keep saying that you feel responsible, but if you feel responsible, do you just call the Japanese embassy in Korea and say a word?]]
[Yoon Hoo-deok / Democratic Party member: (Already) responded too slowly, and he did humiliating diplomacy again, and responded with low voice, and this public opinion was intensifying.]
There were also calls from opposition lawmakers to ask whether there had been a request for weapons-of-kill aid from Ukraine, which is at war with Russia, and to not provide weapons aid if so.
So far, I'm YTN Lim Sungjae in the National Assembly.
