Ahead of President Yoon Suk Yeol's public statement tomorrow, various arguments are flowing out calling for a solution to the reform of state affairs.

People's power and close circles said that "human reform" must be included, and the Democratic Party of Korea pressured Kim Gun-hee's independent counsel law to be the minimum condition.

I'll connect you to the National Assembly and find out more. Reporter Lee Junyeop!

Please tell us more about the mood within the ruling camp ahead of tomorrow's presidential statement!

First of all, close alumni have repeatedly emphasized the need for "human renewal" in one voice.

Jang Dong-hyuk, a member of the People's Power Supreme Council, explained in a radio interview that personnel reform is not about holding people accountable, but about changing the direction of state administration.

The scope should be half a step further than the public's expectations, and at this point, I feel that the direction of state administration will change significantly.

On the other hand, pro-Yoon-gye lawmakers emphasized that the fact that the press conference will take place without a theme or time limit shows President Yoon's willingness to reform.

In a phone call with YTN, Kwon Young-se said, "President Yoon's direct speech in an unprecedented format can be a message in itself."

He also added that he understood that President Yoon tried to contain the advice of the party, senior, and senior citizens through various channels.

In the party, there is a war of nerves over the fact that floor leader Choo Kyung-ho met with President Yoon earlier and asked him to advance the schedule of the statement.

In a phone call with YTN, a close-knit official said Choo did not inform Representative Han Dong-hoon that he had met with President Yoon at all, adding, "It was clearly his fault."

On the other hand, Rep. Lee Chul-kyu, a member of the pro-Yoon-gye, pointed out in a radio interview that it is not the time to show conflict and division, referring to the Go term, "Asaeng Yeonhu Salta," in which he should buy himself first and then go to catch his opponent.

In the meantime, representative Han is scheduled to meet senior members of the party's 5th and 6th and 3rd and 4th terms in the afternoon, drawing attention to what opinions will be exchanged regarding the presidential statement.

Floor leader Choo Kyung-ho met with reporters at the National Assembly a while ago and expressed his intention not to attend, saying he had already held a lot of meetings with Han.

The Democratic Party is pressuring the president to include stronger reform measures, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party of Korea argues that the personnel reform mentioned earlier is a natural story, and that "acceptance of the Special Prosecutor Act by First Lady Kim Gun-hee" is the minimum condition.

In a call with YTN, a key party official said President Yoon should apologize to the public and demanded that it contain specific and direct details, including the acceptance of the special prosecutor.

In particular, he stressed that President Yoon should explain one by one, saying how First Lady Kim has intervened in state affairs.

Representative Lee Jae-myung also said that he expects to touch the hurt heart and express a reasonable position at the Supreme Council meeting.

The Democratic Party, however, predicted that the opposition's requirements are unlikely to be reflected.

In a radio interview, Kim Yong-min, the deputy floor leader, criticized the president's office's parliamentary audit of the steering committee for being stiff and heavy-handed and consistent with lies, arguing that tomorrow's press conference will be the same.

In the midst of this, there is a dispute between the ruling and opposition parties over the argument that the first trial of Democratic Party Chairman Lee Jae-myung should be broadcast live?

[Reporter]
The power of the four people is insisting every day that the first trial sentence of representative Lee Jae-myung should be broadcast live on TV for the people's right to know.

Rep. Lee Chul-kyu mentioned in a radio interview that the trials of former presidents were broadcast live, and pointed out that the opposition party, which demanded the disclosure at the time, is now "innerly fighting."

Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the large opposition party, said he has a lot of influence and much higher public interest, and said that if they feel unfair due to political prosecution, the unfairness must be resolved only when it is disclosed.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party criticized the ruling party for threatening the judiciary over the opposition party, and countered that the request for the live broadcast of Lee's sentence was a threat to the judiciary.

Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the Supreme Council, said at the Supreme Council that even elementary school students know that the demand for live broadcasting is an impure intention to stigmatize the leader of the first opposition party and put psychological pressure on the court.

Then, if the people's power really values the people's right to know, they said they would like to stop threatening the judiciary and accept the special prosecutor Kim, who the people want, to receive a live broadcast of the special prosecutor's investigation.
