The People's Power will hold a meeting to discuss the issue of the Special Inspector General ahead of today's plenary session.

Attention is focusing on whether the issue of the special inspector, which led to factional conflict, can be brought to an end.

Jeong Seong-guk, vice president of the organization, expressed confidence, saying, "Having a parliamentary meeting 30 minutes before the plenary session itself shows that opinions have been gathered without controversy."

[Jeong Seong-guk / Vice-President of People's Power Organization (SBS Kim Tae-hyun's Political Show): The general meeting of the lawmakers is half past one, half an hour before the plenary session. (Oh really? I think it could take another 30 minutes for some reason.) They said that. Why is it so short? He's like this. Isn't it a symbolic demonstration that the atmosphere has changed from the time when there was a debate about the special inspection before the press conference? (It's decided to be a special inspector, right?) That's how we should go. Because the Democratic Party of Korea doesn't oppose the special inspection right now. I'm not against the special inspector. And we also need a precautionary measure now. There are two and a half years left in the president's term, and we need to prevent various problems that have been raised so far. Then there is no reason to block the special inspector system. You also broadened your door during the president's press conference.]

However, the atmosphere within the party is still strangely divided.

Rep. Kang Seung-gyu, a pro-Yoon-gye lawmaker, is still opposing the special inspector's position ahead of the parliamentary assembly.

In the end, he stressed that it is only giving the Democratic Party's offensive material.

[Kang Seung-gyu / People's Power (YTN News Fighting): It is questionable whether we alone need to change about the fact that the opposition party has not backed down at all on this and has not moved at all on the director of the North Korean human rights ambassador. I'm against the conclusion of the General Assembly, but we'll have to wait and see today. In particular, even if the special inspector confirms it, the question is whether the opposition party will do that now, even if we try to change it in terms of what kind of negotiations between the ruling and opposition parties may be restored. I don't even need an airlift now. There is no need for prosecutors. Let's do a special investigation rather than a special inspector. We are conducting a special investigation whenever we speak. In the end, the special inspector system will only end up as a subject of attack in such an opposition battle.

Even if opinions from the ruling party are gathered, the opposition party needs cooperation in the end.

The Democrats are still emphasizing the special counsel after the special prosecution.

Park Sung-joon, senior vice president of the floor operation, argued that the special prosecution is more important than a special inspection for preventive measures because the incident has already occurred.

[Park Sung-joon / Senior Deputy Floor Leader of the Democratic Party (SBS Kim Tae-hyun's Political Show): I have never consistently opposed the special inspector. In the Democratic Party. And now, I think the power of the people and the president's office can organize and promote it. Don't the public want to find out this through a special prosecutor now? So, the Democratic Party is the first special prosecutor and the second special prosecutor. However, the special inspector's institutional meaning is that he should take preemptive preventive measures, but now the incident has occurred. Suspicion is growing like a snowball right now. Is it a pre-emptive or a late step? Shouldn't it be done through investigation? If so, the public sentiment is to find out the truth of this suspicion through a special prosecutor, not a special inspector, and the most important thing at this point is the special prosecutor.]
