With the 22nd first parliamentary audit completed and the budget review begins tomorrow, floor leaders of the ruling and opposition parties held a press conference on pending issues a little while ago.

The People's Power launched an offensive yesterday over the opposition's outdoor rally, calling it the "Bulletproof Party together," and the Democratic Party of Korea pressed to make November the month of the independent counsel, Kim Gun-hee.

Connect to the National Assembly to find out more.

Reporter Lee Jun-yeop, please tell us the details of the press conference of the floor leaders of the ruling and opposition parties held a while ago.

[Reporter]
Yes, at 11 a.m., the floor leaders of both parties held a meeting each other to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the parliamentary audit, but they poured out sharp remarks toward each other.

People's Power Floor Leader Choo Kyung-ho accused the Democratic Party, a large opposition party buried in political strife, of being a nuisance, a curtain wall, and a bulletproof inspection of the government during the month of the inspection.

In particular, he pointed out that the head of the National Assembly has been reduced to a "private law firm" by blatantly threatening the claim of Lee Jae-myung's innocence against the heads of courts who attended the parliamentary inspection.

Then, the Democratic Party of Korea's large-scale outdoor rally held yesterday was also like a "BTS Party together," saying that the whole nation knows that the purpose is only Lee's bulletproof party.

On the other hand, Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the Democratic Party, claimed that the biggest achievement of the parliamentary inspection was the revealing of the ugly face of the regime by disclosing the recordings of President Yoon Suk Yeol and Myung Tae-kyun's alleged nomination intervention.

The final conclusion of the National Assembly's audit is also the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act, and the Democratic Party of Korea said it would make November the month of the Special Prosecutor's Office Kim.

He then said that the only way for President Yoon to live is to accept Kim's independent counsel, calling for the people's power and representative Han Dong-hoon to follow the public sentiment to investigate Kim.

The ruling party's agony is deepening over the issue of Mrs. Kim?

[Reporter]
Han Dong-hoon, the leader of the People's Power, who has remained silent since the release of the phone recordings of President Yoon and Myung, is expected to announce his position as early as tomorrow, drawing attention to the content and level of the recordings.

In a phone call with YTN, a key official of the party's representative office compared before and after the release of the recording to the difference in inflammation and cancer judgment, and said that the previously proposed solution to Kim, including the special inspector, has become out of line with the situation.

However, he explained the atmosphere that he has been waiting for a while, believing that the leading solution, such as reform measures, in Yongsan, can avoid "disorder controversy."

Senior citizens of the People's Power will also hold a private meeting with standing advisors at the central headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul, today to discuss the recent party crisis.

However, at the party level, the opposition party is responding to the opposition's offensive, believing that the purpose is to impeach Representative Lee Jae-myung and President Yoon.

Floor spokesman Park Joon-tae said in a commentary that the Democratic Party of Korea held a "bulletproof party" through an off-the-shelf struggle yesterday, and Chairman Lee Jae-myung said the truth should be revealed in court, not in the square.

In the meantime, next year's budget political situation will begin in earnest starting this week, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is expected to show the cold air between the ruling and opposition parties from tomorrow's budget correction speech.

For the first time in 11 years since Park Geun Hye's government, Yoon Suk Yeol was absent and Prime Minister Han Duck-soo was set to read the speech.

In addition, the comprehensive policy questionnaire of the Special Committee on Budget and Accounts, which will be held from the 7th to the 8th, is expected to begin a full-fledged fight between the ruling and opposition parties.

The ruling People's Power is vowing to protect the government's budget for next year, which is worth 667 trillion won.

It also plans to block the increase in the budget related to the additional issuance of "local currency," which is a representative pledge of Democratic Party Chairman Lee Jae-myung.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party is looking to drastically reduce major government projects, including the prosecution's special activity expenses.

In the case of the mental health support project and the budget related to the end of dog food, it is considered to be a project that Mrs. Kim Gun-hee has paid attention to, signaling a full reduction.

So far, I've delivered it to you by the National Assembly.
