Today, the National Assembly will hold a plenary session and deal with the motion for the appointment of three candidates for the Constitutional Court.

The people's power is to immediately seek a power dispute trial to the Constitutional Court, but the Democratic Party of Korea is fighting against the impeachment if Acting President Han Deok-soo delays his appointment.

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

Yes, it's the National Assembly.

The opposition party alone can pass the appointment motion, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, as the motion to appoint constitutional judges is passed with a majority of the members present, the opposition party, which won the majority of seats, can handle it alone.

There are three appointment agreements to be held at the plenary session this afternoon, with the Democratic Party recommended by Ma Eun-hyuk and Chung Gye-seon, and the People's Power recommended by Cho Han-chang.

The National Assembly's Special Committee on Personnel Hearings adopted the report as a "qualified" opinion in a two-day hearing from the 23rd.

In the case of the power of the people who did not attend from the confirmation hearing stage, saying that Acting President Han Deok-soo had no right to appoint him, it is unclear whether he will participate in the plenary session.

A key official of the People's Power Party told reporters that he would file a trial for a constitutional dispute in the opposition's hearing process and apply for an injunction to suspend its effectiveness.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party warns that it will impeach Han tomorrow morning at the latest unless Han appoints the appointment motion as soon as it is transferred to the government.

Amid the intensifying confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties, today's plenary session will also deal with some of the bills on people's livelihoods agreed earlier between the ruling and opposition policy committee heads.

The launch of a state council in which both the ruling and opposition parties and the government participate is being delayed?

[Reporter]
Yes, the first meeting of the government council, which was originally scheduled to be held today, is in an atmosphere of failure.

It has been reported that it is difficult to even sit face to face due to differences in opinions between the ruling and opposition parties since the working-level consultation.

The ruling party, which has to hold the key of the consultative body, demanded the chairman of the policy committee, and the opposition party, which claims the "party leader level," demanded the chief of staff of the party leader as a negotiator.

The issue of the impeachment of acting Han Deok-soo is also a variable in the launch of the consultative body.

In a call with YTN, a key official of the People's Power Party protested that the opposition party was talking about the impeachment of Han, even before the launch of the consultative body, even though it was polite to the battlefield enemy.

On the other hand, a key Democratic Party official pointed out that if they insist on a floor leader-level meeting, a consultative body cannot be formed, and that the meeting without working-level coordination is meaningless.

So far, I've delivered it to you by the National Assembly.
