The Democratic Party's political fortunes are at stake this afternoon.

Representative Lee Jae-myung is expected to depart from the National Assembly to attend the trial ahead of the first trial of the Public Official Election Act.

We will connect to the site and listen to the voice of the site.

[Reporter]
Please say something.

[Renaming]
I don't have anything to say.

[Reporter]
How do you expect the outcome of the sentence?

[Renaming]
I'll do it according to the law.

[Reporter]
Are you prepared to be guilty?

[Renaming]
Done.

We just showed you that representative Lee Jae-myung came out of the National Assembly and was moving to attend the trial.

When reporters asked what the outcome of the sentence would be like, they answered, "I will do it according to the law of Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the Democratic Party." I'll give it to you again.

Representative Lee Jae-myung boarded a vehicle at the National Assembly a while ago.

I think I'll probably go straight to the Seoul Central District Court after lunch somewhere.

The Democratic Party of Korea said today that Representative Lee has no plans to announce a separate position regarding the sentence.

Perhaps the outcome of today's sentence will have a significant impact on Lee's political moves.

To explain, if you are convicted of a fine of more than 1 million won and this is confirmed later, you will lose your seat as a lawmaker.

And the right to run for election is also restricted for five years.

If this happens, it will be impossible to run in the 2027 presidential election.

We have no choice but to give a considerable political shock to representative Lee Jae-myung.

Just a moment ago, Representative Lee Jae-myung showed me departing from the National Assembly and heading toward the court.

I'll connect it back to you in a little while and deliver it to you.
