The conclusion of the first trial of Lee Jae-myung's perjury teacher case, which lasted for about a year, was innocent.
The court found Kim Jin-sung, accused of being an accomplice, partially guilty of perjury and sentenced him to a fine of 5 million won.

Supporters cheered and Democrats hugged each other as they walked out of the court.
Participants in the rally to condemn Lee Jae-myung poured out anger.
The Democratic Party leaders all called the first trial ruling "truth and justice."
It is argued that no matter how much the regime tries to eliminate political opponents by mobilizing political prosecutors, it has been proven that it cannot create crimes that do not exist.

The ruling party was apparently embarrassed.
This is because the possibility of guilt has been high, as the court dismissed the representative Lee's arrest warrant in September last year and said that the perjury teacher charge is a clarification.
[Han Dong-hoon / Representative of People's Power: The judicial system is a system. In the process, I think it is likely to be corrected within the Korean judicial system.
The National Assembly's Legislation and Judiciary Committee has decided to hold an impeachment hearing for two prosecutors on the 11th of next month.
Next week, the impeachment of three prosecutors, including Lee Chang-soo, head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, will also be reported to the plenary session.

The Democratic Party's proposed amendment to the rules of the standing special prosecution has passed the plenary session of the National Assembly led by the opposition party.
If the president and his family are subject to investigation, the ruling party's right to recommend special prosecutors is excluded and the share is given to non-consulting organizations.

Pro-Yoon-gye reiterated that it is a simple matter that only needs to reveal whether the author of the article in question is a representative family member.
[Kang Myung-gu / Member of the People's Power (YTN Radio 'News fighting, this is Bae Seung-hee'): The key is whether CEO Han Dong-hoon wrote it or not, whether the family name was stolen or not, whether the family wrote it or not.]
As the controversy over the party's bulletin board continues for about three weeks, there are many criticisms that it only exposed the division when the party has to focus its power on public welfare and reform.
