Since the meeting between President Yoon Suk Yeol and Representative Han Dong-hoon of the People's Power, opposition has continued within the ruling camp, and aftershocks continue.Representative

Han reportedly said last night (22nd) that he would "speak more directly" at a dinner gathering of about 20 close friends, while Democratic Party Chairman Lee Jae-myung emphasized "restoring politics" at a meeting a while ago.

What does it mean, I'll connect you to a reporter from the National Assembly. Reporter Hong Min Gi!

Yes, it is said that close lawmakers gathered for dinner last night, so please tell us in detail what was said.

Yes, close lawmakers had a dinner last night at a restaurant in Yeouido, Seoul, a day after the meeting between President Park Yoon Suk Yeol and Representative Han Dong-hoon.

About 20 people, including six-term lawmaker Cho Kyung-tae, lawmaker Jung Sung-guk, Supreme Council member Jang Dong-hyuk, and Supreme Council member Kim Jong-hyuk, attended and lasted about two hours.In a YTN call, a member of Han Chin-gye, who attended a dinner in

, said, "It was a meeting to explain the details of Han's interview with President Yoon, and I mainly heard a lot about Han."

He also explained that the representative said everything he had to say in Yongsan, and that a representative is likely to make the message clearer in the future.

In fact, representative Han is said to have said at the dinner, "I will say it more directly."

It is also known that it is not the time to adapt the words to the president's office, but to say "yes or no" to the three demands to resolve the controversy over First Lady Kim Gun-hee.The intention is that the president's office explained the contents of the interview the day after the

interview, and the contents were adapted and revealed as it was pointed out as an 'empty interview'.

It is interpreted as a sign that representative Han, who believes that his demands, such as personnel reform of the presidential office, suspension of Kim's external activities, and cooperation to investigate suspicions, have been virtually rejected, will strongly urge a change in the presidential office's attitude in the future.

At yesterday's dinner, it was confirmed that there were talks about photos of the meeting released by the presidential office or the attendance of floor leader Choo Kyung-ho at the presidential office dinner after the meeting.Floor leader

Chu attended the dinner without informing Han, and some criticized that he was "loyal to Yongsan and only looking at the president."

Earlier, it was found that Han was also embarrassed when he posted an article about Choo's attendance at the dinner in a group chat room where close lawmakers gathered.

Yes, in this situation, the Democratic Party is putting more pressure on Kim Gun-hee to accept the independent counsel law?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party of Korea seems to be raising the intensity of Kim Gun-hee's special prosecution law offensive with the gap between the two, saying that the meeting between President Yoon Suk Yeol and Representative Han Dong-hoon was nothing but an empty-handed meeting.

In the morning meeting, Lee Jae-myung criticized that there is even a rumor that politics is like a back alley gang fight, saying it is a disappointing and very unfortunate interview in many ways.

Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the party, also pointed out that President Yoon's remarks to "fight with the party" mean that President Yoon and his wife will use the power of the people as a shield.

In an interview with CBS Radio, Supreme Council member Kim Min-seok downplayed the meeting with the president as a 'moral farewell ceremony,'

He also made somewhat provocative remarks to close lawmakers, saying, "If you have a tummy, shouldn't you still dream?"

He urged Han to change his close relationship with him, saying he intends to discuss the third and fourth-party special prosecution laws.

A key Democratic Party official said in a phone call with YTN that Han would have no choice but to come forward with a forward-looking attitude toward the special prosecution, but left room for the Democratic Party to change the special prosecution law if there is no change.

The Democratic Party of Korea said Lee Jae-myung ordered his chief of staff to discuss the agenda, timing and method of the second meeting with Han today.

While the main agenda is widely expected to be the Special Prosecutor's Act, some predict that financial investment income tax, special prosecutors for Chae Sang-byung, and solutions to the medical crisis could also be on the table.
