Kim Gun-hee, who returned to the National Assembly at the request of the president's reconsideration, the Special Prosecutor Act on Chae Sang-byung, and the Local Currency Act were all rejected and automatically abolished.

However, the ruling party, which showed confidence in the "single confrontation", has been confirmed to have four departure votes for the "Both Special Prosecutors Act", so the ruling party is also on alert.

Yes, it's the National Assembly.

The Special Prosecutor Kim Gun-hee, the Special Prosecutor for Chae Sang-byung Act, and the Local Currency Act, which came back to the plenary session today, were rejected?

[Reporter]
That's right. The re-voting was conducted by anonymous voting.

First of all, the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor's Act gave 194 votes in favor, 104 against, one abstaining, and one invalid vote out of the 300 total votes cast.

The Chae Sang-byung Special Prosecutor's Act also gave 194 votes in favor, 104 against, and two invalid votes.

The Local Currency Act has 187 votes in favor, 111 against, and two invalid votes, and all three bills that came to the plenary session today were finally rejected.

The Democratic Party of Korea immediately held a condemnation convention and strongly criticized the ruling party, saying it would reveal the truth until the end by re-issuing the bilateral special prosecution law.

The Democratic Party of Korea says it will more thoroughly verify suspicions related to Kim at the parliamentary audit starting next week.

On the other hand, the power of the people stuck to the position that the 'wrong bill' was inevitably rejected.

However, the ruling party previously decided to reject these three bills at the general meeting of lawmakers as a party theory.

Nevertheless, 104 votes were cast against the ruling party's 108 lawmakers in this vote, confirming that at least four votes were cast.

The ruling party's so-called "unitary confrontation" was virtually not observed, and for this reason, floor leader Choo Kyung-ho convened an emergency meeting of the current floor leadership.

In fact, the ruling party has recently raised suspicions about Kim Gun-hee, following the controversy over the receipt of luxury bags, the alleged manipulation of Deutsche Motors' stock price, and the intervention of the nomination of candidates for the general election.
Apart from the
legal judgment, there are voices inside and outside that separate measures such as Mrs. Kim's apology are needed.

If the Yoon Suk Yeol presidents and their wives do not tie themselves up, there is a concern that there is no justification to block the additional special prosecution law offensive.

In fact, Representative Ahn Cheol Soo met with reporters after the plenary session and said, "I think it is appropriate to apologize if the people think there is a moral problem."

Let's look at the discussion of financial investment income tax in the Democratic Party.

We even held a general meeting today, but we couldn't reach a conclusion in the end?

[Reporter]
That's right. The Democratic Party of Korea, which held a general meeting of lawmakers for nearly an hour and a half, eventually decided to leave the leadership to organize its position on the financial investment tax and the timing of its conclusion.

In addition to the opinion that the financial investment tax should be implemented as scheduled and that it should be suspended, various arguments were reportedly in a tense atmosphere, including the opinion that it should be abolished altogether.

Representative Lee Jae-myung has the right to decide, and as representative Lee has been mentioning the possibility of postponement since the national convention phase, the possibility of going in the direction of "deferral of financial investment tax" is carefully raised.

However, even if the Democratic Party of Korea solidifies its final conclusion with "deferral", it is expected to try to appease internal public opinion in favor of the financial investment tax with clues such as the need to improve the stock market constitution.

Aftershocks continue over the impeachment hearing of Park Sang-young, the prosecutor who investigated the allegations of Lee Jae-myung's remittance to North Korea, on the 2nd.

In particular, the ruling and opposition parties fought over former Gyeonggi-do Provincial Governor for Peace Lee Hwa-young's repeated allegations of "statement fabrication"?

[Reporter]
People's Power Party floor leader Choo Kyung-ho criticized the Democratic Party in the morning meeting, saying it is mobilizing all kinds of impeachment and special prosecution hearings, providing an opportunity to make false claims to criminals under arrest after being sentenced to heavy punishment.

On the 2nd, the National Assembly's Legislation and Judiciary Committee held an impeachment hearing for Park Sang-yong, a deputy prosecutor at the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office, which investigated former Gyeonggi Province's Deputy Governor for Peace Lee Hwa-young, and pointed out that former Deputy Governor Lee Hwa-young was present here.

Let's listen to it for ourselves.

[Choo Kyung-ho / People's Power Floor Leader: A criminal gets the privilege of lying unilaterally about his charges in the National Assembly, which was even broadcast live on TV to the entire nation. The Democratic Party claimed to be a lawyer for criminals.]

On the other hand, the Democratic Party of Korea focused its efforts on the loan offensive, saying that the prosecution's alleged manipulation of statements and conciliation and intimidation revealed by former Deputy Governor Lee Hwa-young at the hearing are shocking.

Floor leader Park Chan-dae said in a morning meeting that manipulating false statements by cajoling and threatening suspects in difficult situations is a shocking revelation that cannot and should not be made.

Let's listen to it for ourselves.

[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: Is it the basic attitude of the Yoon Suk Yeol prosecution to fabricate statements that do not exist to remove political opponents and accuse them of not existing ones? If only one-tenth, or one-hundredth, of such efforts and sincerity had been invested, the investigation into the alleged manipulation of Kim Gun-hee's stock price would have already been completed.]

Ahead of the full-fledged parliamentary audit, the confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties over Lee Jae-myung's "judicial risk" and Kim Gun-hee's various controversies seems to be getting even steeper.

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