Suspicions surrounding Myung Tae-kyun and the ruling party have shifted to the presidential election phase, where President Yoon Suk Yeol joined the people's power and became a candidate after holding a primary.It is suspected that
reported their own polls based on their friendship with President Yoon and his wife at the time, and contacted Kim until the general election in April.
As the controversy spread, CEO Han Dong-hoon began to extinguish Myung, criticizing him as a collaborator.

However, suspicions are snowballing due to the "suspicious leak of the party's list" raised by the opposition party.
It is claimed that 570,000 phone numbers of members of the People's Power Party were used in a poll led by Myung during the last presidential election, and the party leaders immediately launched a fact-finding investigation.

{People whose names were up and down saying they were involved with him denied their connection, and Myung refuted them, leading to a war of words.
Daegu Mayor Kim ∀ called for a thorough investigation, saying, "I blocked access by seeing Myung as a problematic person from the beginning," but
responded that the investigation without sanctuary could make Hong more dangerous.
When Supreme Council member Kim Jae-won criticized him as a vicious charlatan, he implied his influence, saying, "Do you know why he failed the by-elections two years ago?"
The opposition party, which was watching the ruling party's infighting, criticized Myung's allegations as reminiscent of the manipulation of state affairs during the Park Geun Hye administration.
[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: If the allegations surrounding Myung are true, it is a clear second manipulation of state affairs, comparable to Choi Soon-sil's manipulation of state affairs, which brought down the Park Geun Hye regime.]
As suspicions surrounding Myung Tae-kyun have not subsided, new suspicions are raised day by day and spread, there are voices in the ruling party that the unclear explanation of the president's office is causing confusion.
