A launching ceremony was held at the National Assembly to oppose the arrest of President Yoon Suk Yeol with the arrangement of former lawmaker Kim Min, the People's Power.

However, from the name to the appearance of this group, it is not enough to be reminiscent of the "political gangster" of the Syngman Rhee administration in the past and the plainclothes police who suppressed the democratization movement.

Young men in white helmets stood at the National Assembly briefing room.

With the arrangement of former lawmaker Kim Min, the People's Power, the "anti-communist youth group" made up of young people in their 20s and 30s who oppose the arrest of President Yoon Suk Yeol held a launching ceremony.

They called for an end to the police's attempt to arrest the incumbent president, saying it is likely to spread to civil war.

In particular, as the white helmet symbolizes, it is said that it also operates a so-called "white bone group" as an organization under the anti-communist youth group, which is controversial.

This is because the name of the political gang organized by the Liberal Party during the Syngman Rhee administration and the nickname for the plainclothes police who violently suppressed the democratization movement in the 1980s and 1990s is Baekgoldan.

The Democratic Party of Korea criticized the plan to neutralize public power through violence, saying, "Are you trying to make President Yoon bulletproof by reviving the political gang?"

In particular, a member of the public party raised his voice that it is never acceptable to deny democracy and mobilize violence by arranging the launch ceremony.

The power of the people is not the official position of the party, saying there are differences in tendencies among lawmakers in the party.While confrontation between the camps is intensifying ahead of the execution of the second arrest warrant for President

Yoon, some point out that some radical actions are adding fuel to social conflict.
