While the ruling party, which put forward "orderly early withdrawal" instead of impeaching the president, has not been able to decide on specific measures at the "marathon general meeting" every day, the atmosphere within the party seems to be shaking.
A series of lawmakers have said they will participate in the vote on the president's impeachment this Saturday, and the number of so-called "Leave Votes" who have vowed to vote in favor is also increasing.

Kim Jae-seop, a first-term lawmaker in the Seoul metropolitan area, who is considered to be the younger member of the ruling party, held an emergency press conference.
On the 14th, he publicly announced that he would vote in favor of the second vote on the impeachment of President Yoon.
The most orderly resignation is impeachment,'' he said, urging the party to also be determined.

Even within close circles, there are opinions that "orderly resignation" has actually become useless unless the presidential office accepts it.

Adding to the rapidly deteriorating public sentiment, Han Dong-hoon's strategy to minimize confusion in state affairs through "orderly resignation" also seems inevitable.
In addition, the election of a new floor leader, which has been in the form of a three-way confrontation between factions, is expected to cause considerable labor within the party until the vote on the impeachment bill.
