The Democratic Party of Korea, which launched a general offensive against the ruling party after disclosing a recording of the phone call between President Yoon Suk Yeol and Myung Tae-kyun, held a large-scale outdoor rally to condemn the president and his wife and call for an independent counsel.

The power of the people is watching public opinion, criticizing it as a bulletproof rally to cover the judicial risk of Lee Jae-myung, who is about to be sentenced in the first trial.

Are you done with the opposition rally?

It was held for a little more than two hours in the area of Seoul Station from 2 p.m. and is now finished.

The official name of today's rally, announced by the Democratic Party, was "National Action Day," which condemned the Yoon Suk Yeol President and his wife's manipulation of state affairs and urged a special prosecutor.

Party leaders, lawmakers, party members and supporters filled half of the road from Seoul Station to Sungnyemun Gate.

Initially, the rally was designed to condemn various suspicions surrounding Kim Gun-hee, including the Deutsche Motors stock price manipulation case.

However, the Democratic Party of Korea shifted its focus to the allegations of the president and his wife's manipulation of state affairs after disclosing the phone recording with Myung Tae-kyun, which caused suspicions of President Yoon's meddling in the nomination.

The leadership, who stood on the floor of the rally, staged a public opinion campaign, saying that it is time for the people to come forward and act directly to judge the regime.

Some supreme council members even insisted on President Yoon's resignation.

Representative Lee Jae-myung also mentioned the candlelight vigil that called for the impeachment of former President Park Geun Hye in 2016, saying that those who are not responsible dominate state affairs, and emergency ceremonies, stupidity, and magic are shaking state affairs.

He said it was the people who rose and acted at every juncture in history, and the darkness driven by candles returned to a darker darkness, but he raised his voice to fight together again.President

Yoon asked Kim Gun-hee to accept the special counsel, take emergency measures for people's livelihood, and pursue peace policies on the Korean Peninsula, and follow the public sentiment toward the ruling party.

What's the response to your passport?

The People's Power defined today's Democratic Party rally as a customized bulletproof rally for representative Lee Jae-myung ahead of the first trial this month.

Floor spokesman Park Joon-tae said that the Democratic Party was immersed in sedition politics by calling for impeachment, martial law, and resignation until the last day of the parliamentary audit, arguing that all activities of the party are geared toward the impeachment of the president and that the purpose is Lee's judicial risk bulletproof.

However, internally, it can be seen that the opposition party is in trouble.

With representative Han Dong-hoon continuing his silence, floor leader Choo Kyung-ho visited Daegu and Gyeongbuk today to encourage party members.

As the approval rating of the state administration has recently fallen to the lowest level in TK, the party's traditional strong region, it seems to have started to settle the situation.

A key party official told YTN on the phone that for now, we have no choice but to watch the development of public opinion.

Presidential Chief of Staff Chung Jin-suk told the parliamentary inspection of the presidential office yesterday that there will be some form of expression of Yoon's position within this month.

However, he said he understood that Prime Minister Han Deok-soo will replace next year's budget plan, which is scheduled at the National Assembly the day after tomorrow.

The details of the phone call with Myung Tae-kyun are released, and the ruling and opposition parties seem to consider the situation of continuing an extreme confrontation over the special prosecution.President

Yoon did not attend the opening ceremony of the 22nd National Assembly in September, which would be the first time in 11 years since 2013 if he did not deliver a speech on this year's budget.
