A day before the October 16 by-elections, the ruling and opposition parties are eager to encourage voting and campaign.

In particular, although the ruling party has traditionally been strong, it is paying attention to the by-election situation of Busan's Geumjeong-gu District Office, the "biggest battleground" pursued by the opposition party.

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

Please tell us the movement of the ruling and opposition parties at the end of the election.

Yes, first of all, Han Dong-hoon, CEO of the People's Power, will hold a Busan Geumjeong schedule for two days and one night, starting with a meeting with a local senior group this afternoon.Representative

is the sixth person to visit Busan during the election, and he plans to make all-out efforts until close to midnight today.

The ruling party expects a last-minute vote rally in Ganghwa-gun, Incheon, and Geumjeong-gu, Busan, which are traditionally strong areas.

In a radio interview, Shin Ji-ho, the head of the strategic planning department, predicted that Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Young-bae's remarks on "defamation of the deceased" are serving as a feeling of memorial to Kim Jae-yoon, the former head of the district office who died in the line of duty.

Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the Democratic Party, said on social media that he could not visit the campaign site today due to his trial schedule, but he encouraged the vote, saying that there is only one day left for the "second judgment day."

Lee asked you to take over the role of the opposition leader that he could not fulfill, and asked you to choose faithful workers of the Democratic Party to lead the regional development against the regime's livelihood.

Chairman of the Policy Committee, Jin Sung-joon, along with the heads of four local governments where the by-elections will be held, urged them to pay attention to the election of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, which recorded the lowest turnout since the introduction of early voting in 2014.

In a phone call with YTN, a party official stressed that not only Geumjeong in Busan and Ganghwa in Incheon, but also Yeonggwang in Jeollanam-do, where independent candidates have been strong, are doing their best.

In the meantime, inside the passport, there is a war of words over a series of remarks by CEO Han Dong-hoon?

[Reporter]
In response to CEO Han Dong-hoon's earlier remarks aimed at First Lady Kim Gun-hee, saying, "The line of people without public status should not exist," close relatives also launched support shots.

In a radio interview, Supreme Council member Kim Jong-hyuk explained that Han's public remarks were inevitable, saying that there were public and private comments by several people in the party, but they were not reflected at all.

Another key party official also bolstered Han's remarks in a call with YTN, arguing that it would be more meaningful to clean up the "non-line" than the launch of the second annex.

On the other hand, Kwon Young-se, who is considered to be pro-yoon, told YTN that it is right to refrain from making remarks that highlight and amplify the party's conflicts ahead of the election.

He then worried that if he suddenly throws a request in a scheduled meeting with President Yoon Suk Yeol, it may be difficult to solve it well because he thinks the other party is pushed even if he wants to solve it.

In the meantime, the party seems to be agonizing over how to respond to the suspicion of Myung Tae-kyun, who has been making remarks every day regarding the "suspected intervention in the nomination."

A key party official told YTN, "There is no way to immediately call Myeong to investigate him even if we form a TF, and it is not right to call him to investigate him just because his name is mentioned."

In particular, Myung described it as "difficult" and said that he is now shooting rifles or machine guns, but he does not know whether surface-to-air missiles will come out or what will come out.

The parliamentary audit is now in the middle of the year, so please tell us what will be covered today.

[Reporter]
Yes, today, nine standing committees, including the Legislation and Judiciary Committee, will continue to audit the state affairs of the competent authorities.

The Judiciary Committee's audit of the Board of Audit and Inspection is expected to deal with the "controversy over private contracts for the presidential office building" and the "targeted audit" when lawmaker Jeon Hyun-hee was chairman of the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission.

A little while ago, at the National Assembly, Chairman Chung Chung-rae criticized Choi for not faithfully submitting the data to the Board of Audit and Inspection, and Choi answered that he had faithfully submitted it, and there was a loud voice from the beginning.

In addition, the Public Administration and Security Committee's parliamentary audit of the Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency is expected to deal with Kim Gun-hee's "Mapo Bridge inspection."

Regarding Myung Tae-kyun's claim that he helped Mayor Oh Se-hoon win the election during the 2021 by-election for Seoul mayor, questions are expected to focus on Mayor Oh Se-hoon, who protested, calling it a "absurd claim."

In addition, the National Assembly inspection of Seoul National University and Seoul National University Hospital by the Board of Education is expected to raise the issue of medical chaos caused by legislative conflicts.

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