The conviction will inevitably hurt Representative Lee Jae-myung's political moves.
Depending on the direction of public opinion, it is observed that the reins of the rental offensive, which has recently tightened suspicions of Myung Tae-kyun, could also be shaken.

Representative Lee Jae-myung has raised the level of condemnation of the regime to the highest level at the past two outdoor rallies.
The suspicion surrounding President Yoon and First Lady Kim Gun-hee and Myung Tae-kyun was a link, and he recalled the impeachment situation by mentioning the 'candlelight revolution' during the Kim Park Geun Hye administration.

On the eve of the first trial, the National Assembly passed the third special prosecution law, increasing the pressure, but immediately faced a counterattack from the ruling party with a ruling that amounted to 10 years of deprivation of the right to run for election.

Inside the Democratic Party, the prevailing view is that Lee's leadership will not be shaken immediately.
After the approval of the arrest agreement last year, the "one-party system" has become more solid with the victory of the general election and consecutive terms as a representative.
In particular, it is difficult to find a force that can be classified as an "expletive" in the floor, and an "alternative" to counter Representative Lee has not yet been discussed outside the National Assembly.

For now, he is virtually the only leader of the opposition....]
This is why some predict that representative Lee could choose a strategy to overcome the "trial risk" head on by further tightening the reins of the rental offensive on his back.

CEO Lee has experience in reversing the lower court conviction and reviving it in the past when he was governor of Gyeonggi Province.
However, it is unclear whether it will be able to prevent the departure of moderate public sentiment, given that it has accepted unexpected results from the first sentence of "judicial risk," and that there are many remaining trials in the future.
This is why there are concerns within the party that the day of the rental offensive may become dull.
