Since Lee Jae-myung, chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea, was sentenced to a suspended prison sentence and "dismissal of the right to run for election" in the first trial of violating the Public Official Election Act, a strong backlash has been brewing in the political world.

The Democratic Party continued to criticize the court, calling it an obvious "judicial murder," and the people's power set the day that they were threatening judges for Lee's bulletproofness.

Let me connect you to the National Assembly. Reporter Lee Junyeop!

First of all, I think there will be a lot of shockwaves in the Democratic Party.

How's the atmosphere today?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party leadership meeting this morning resembled a denunciation of the case.

Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the first trial, criticized the result as the worst ruling that will remain a stain on the history of the judiciary, saying that the result of the first trial was a clear judicial murder.

After the false ruling, public opinion is spreading that Yoon Suk Yeol's president and his wife should be punished.

Lee Jae-myung did not mention his trial, but stressed that he would pass the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act, saying the prosecution is disrupting the national order by abusing prosecution power, concealing crimes, and exercising unfair authority.

[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party leader: Since an overwhelming majority of the people want an independent counsel, we will do our best to ensure that the independent counsel is realized in accordance with the will of the sovereign of this country.]

The Democratic Party of Korea is also reorganizing its battle lines, including disclosing a voice that claimed that Myung Tae-kyun persuaded the candidate at the time of the Yoon Suk Yeol to prevent lawmaker Yoon Han-hong, the power of the people, from running for governor of Gyeongnam Province.

The party's Myung Tae-kyun gate fact-finding team visited a gallery in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, which was designated as an illegal election office during President Yoon's presidential election, and urged him to find out the suspicions.

How is the atmosphere of the ruling party?

I don't think he's slowing down the offensive.

In the power of the people, the first trial of Lee's perjury teacher is now a week away.

Representative Han Dong-hoon accused the Democratic Party of destroying the judicial system twice with "inspection and intimidation" for bulletproofness and intimidation of judges at the Supreme Council.

He stressed that the public watching the trial will be tired, and that he will set up a TF at the level of the legal committee to monitor the progress of the trial and prevent distortion.

[Han Dong-hoon / Representative of the People's Power: (Perjury teacher) is a typical obstruction of justice, but it is more like a self-harm to go to the extreme ahead of the sentence and to obstruct justice, which is intimidating judges.]

Floor leader Choo Kyung-ho also urged the Democratic Party to stop holding a rally every week to call for the passage of the Special Prosecutor's Law on Kim, saying it was nothing short of a resolution to save Lee Jae-myung.

[Choo Kyung-ho / People's Power Floor Leader: What Lee Jae-myung and the Democratic Party should do is stop the crime bulletproof asphalt politics and humbly wait for the judiciary's judgment.]

{ 대표}Han announced that the party would take the lead in legislating fiscal rules, emphasizing the 'people's livelihood first'.

In the afternoon, he held a meeting at the Korea Federation of Small and Medium Business in Yeouido, Seoul, and said he would keep his past promise to do his best to bridge the gap between large and small businesses.

Please also point out the situation in the floor, you can expect cold air, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, from 2:20 p.m. just now, National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-sik and Choo Kyung-ho, floor leader of the People's Power Party and Park Chan-dae of the Democratic Party, have been holding regular meetings.

Special inspector, parliamentary investigation of the case of Chae Sang-byung, and recommendation of constitutional judges are expected to be discussed.
Considering the frozen political situation of
and the large disagreement between the ruling and opposition parties, it will not be easy to reach an agreement.

In the midst of this, the National Assembly's Special Committee on Budget and Accounts today began reviewing the budget increase and decrease, starting with the ministries and agencies under the jurisdiction of the Land, Infrastructure and Transport Committee.

The ruling and opposition parties plan to vote on the budget plan at a general meeting on the 29th after the so-called review by the 25th, and keep the legal deadline of the 2nd of next month, but it is expected that it will not be easy due to the extreme confrontation.

In addition, at the confirmation hearing for KBS presidential candidate Park Jang-beom, the ruling and opposition parties clashed over the description of the luxury bag Kim Gun-hee received as a "pouch."

The Democratic Party criticized candidate Park for representing the position of the Yoon Suk Yeol President and his wife, but defended the power of the people, emphasizing that Fauci is the official name of the product.
