Ahead of today's meeting between President Yoon Suk Yeol and Representative Han Dong-hoon of the People's Power, there is tension within the ruling camp.

How the controversy over First Lady Kim Gun-hee will be dealt with is of utmost concern, and today, the National Assembly's parliamentary audit office also released a transcript related to the alleged intervention of First Lady Kim's nomination.

I'll connect you to the National Assembly reporter. Reporter Hong Min Gi!

[Reporter]
Yes, it's the National Assembly.

[Anchor]
Yes, representative Han Dong-hoon is meeting with the president of Yoon Suk Yeol this afternoon, so please tell us what the atmosphere is like between the ruling and opposition parties.

[Reporter]
Yes, first of all, tension is evident within the power of the people.

If the controversy over First Lady Kim Gun-hee, which has emerged as the biggest negative factor in the ruling party, is resolved through this meeting, it could be an opportunity for the party and the government to unite, but

If it ends up with an empty-handed meeting, there is also a sense of crisis that it will be difficult to confront the Democratic Party of Korea's offensive ahead of the third vote on the Kim Special Counsel Act.

Let's hear Kim Jong-hyuk's remarks at the meeting this morning.

[Kim Jong-hyuk / Supreme member of People's Power: I sincerely hope that fundamental measures will be taken against the Kim controversy so that our party and its supporters can stand up to this anti-democratic tyranny of the Democratic Party.]

In the midst of this, former Supreme Council member Kim Min, classified as pro-Yoon-gye, accepted Kim's special prosecutor,
Kim Hye-kyung, wife of Chairman Lee Jae-myung of the Democratic Party of Korea
, and Kim Jung-sook, wife of former President Kim Moon Jae In, were asked to propose an independent counsel.

Some point out that the presidential office of Yongsan is responsible for ending the controversy in the end, centering on the close circle.

The Democratic Party is increasing the pressure on Han.

Representative Lee Jae-myung emphasized that it is not clear whether it is a private meeting or an interview, but it is important to meet, and that he hopes to produce positive results, not formal acts.

Park Chan-dae, the floor leader, also joined the pressure of Han.

Let's hear your remarks from this morning's meeting.

[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: Chairman Han Dong-hoon should not mislead the people and actively ask for the full acceptance of Special Prosecutor Kim Gun-hee in a meeting with President Yoon Suk Yeol this afternoon.]

Lee also said he expects to meet with the opposition leader once he has the opportunity, and Han just accepted it, signaling a second meeting between the ruling and opposition parties.

Yes, a key person related to the suspicion of the ruling party's involvement in the nomination will be present at today's parliamentary audit?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

Kang Hye-kyung, a key figure who raised suspicions of intervening in the nomination, will appear as a witness this afternoon at the parliamentary audit of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office of the National Assembly's Legislation and Judiciary Committee.

Kang reported earlier the results of a poll manipulated in favor of President ∀ during the last presidential election by Myung Tae-kyun,

In return, he claimed that he tried to win the nomination of Kim Young-sun, former lawmaker of the People's Power, through First Lady Kim Gun-hee.Transcripts of

Kang's phone call with Myung Tae-kyun and former lawmaker Kim were also released one after another today.

In May last year, former lawmaker Kim said on the phone with Kang, "Myeong Tae-kyun spent most of the money he earned to help President Yoon Suk Yeol."

He said that he was influenced by Myung's activities and won the nomination, but he also drew a line that there was no direct relationship.

In December 2021, before the presidential election, Myung also released a recording of his dream with First Lady Kim Gun-hee, saying, "Kwon Sung-dong, Yoon Han-hong, and former lawmaker Jang Je-won are boiling the candidate in a boiling pot for Yoon Suk Yeol."

At that time, suspicions arose that Rep. Kwon, known as the so-called "Yoon nuclear officer," made sexual harassment remarks,
Representative Kim Yong-min of the
Democratic Party claimed that the conversation was in the context of discussing the 'Yoon nuclear view' issue between Kim and Myung.

On the other hand, Myung said that he delivered the results of the poll to the candidate at the time of the Yoon Suk Yeol, but that the demand for nomination was not true.

In the midst of this, at the beginning of the parliamentary audit, a companion order was issued for First Lady Kim Gun-hee and First Lady Kim's mother Choi Eun-soon, leading to clashes between the ruling and opposition parties at one point.

People protested, saying that the power of the people does not seem to mean much except to humiliate them,

On the other hand, the Democratic Party refuted that the people were hurt by Kim, and members of the Democratic Party visited the presidential residence to execute the accompanying order.

In the afternoon parliamentary inspection, the ruling and opposition parties are expected to stage a battle of truth against Kang over his close relationship with Kim and Myung and his alleged involvement in the nomination.
