◇Anchor> Today, there was an urgent question about the National Assembly. But there was a controversial comment here. Representative Yoon Sang-hyun was the main character. Let's listen to how he said it.

[Yoon Sang-hyun / People's Power Member] If you look at the Supreme Court case in 1997, emergency martial law is considered a high degree of political and governance. (In this regard) Refrain from judicial review while respecting the president's authority, judge unconstitutionality while restraining. This is the Supreme Court precedent.

◇Anchor> Rep. Yoon Sang-hyun, who has opposed the impeachment of the president, has become controversial as he made such remarks today that seem to defend the emergency martial law itself. What did you think of this comment, lawmaker Chung?

◆Jeong Ok-im> So, Korea is now called right-wing or left-wing. However, the advocates of President Yoon Suk Yeol have made claims to justify the emergency martial law by choosing the term very selectively. First of all, what I'm talking about is that while the president runs the state administration, the president leads, and what kind of rebellion is this? The sovereignty of the state does not lie with the president. It's in the people. However, if you limit the basic rights of the people by disrupting the national constitution, it is clearly an illegal or unconstitutional situation. Now, lawmaker Yoon Sang-hyun argues that emergency martial law is not an area of judgment of the judiciary because it is a high-level act of governance with the Supreme Court precedent in 1997. Then, when is the high-level act of governance done? Regarding emergency martial law, it is done during wartime or events or equivalent times. So if this is justified, the president can declare martial law to prevent people's freedom of speech, publication, assembly and association, and arrest and curb the activities of the National Assembly because all offended politicians are anti-state forces? How can a senior lawmaker who has learned enough to say this when it's a dictatorship?

◇ Anchor> So Ahn Cheol Soo Ahn Cheol-soo's cell phone was taken at the plenary session of the National Assembly today, and it was confirmed that a group chat message appeared saying, "Please crack down on Yoon Sang-hyun." This was a remark that was not supported by the ruling party.

◆ Shin Kyung-min> Rep. Yoon Sang-hyun keeps getting weird right now. There was a problem with Rep. Kim Jae-seop. Hey, I'm being criticized in the region right now, so I asked what to do, and anyway, it's weird to say it's advice. I also kept my loyalty and made him an independent candidate a year later, saying that you are a loyal person. Now, we are talking about impeachment and resigning from office for reasons that are dozens or hundreds of times bigger than the reason why President Park Geun Hye was impeached. This is incomparable to the reason for impeachment of the president of Park Geun Hye. Then, in this situation, it's not the time to talk about leisure like this. It's a situation like that, but it's weird to see that person talking right now. It's about whether we're talking about it with a proper judgment. Rep. Kim Jae-seop should also consult with the person who will discuss it. Would it be okay to go and discuss it with anyone just because you're a senior? I got a text message asking me to crack down on my mouth right now, but this doesn't help anyone. It doesn't help anyone, it doesn't help the National Power Party, it doesn't help politics, it doesn't help the National Assembly at all. This person has been proven to be really problematic this time, so I think it's right to be cautious and really tight-lipped.
