With the first trial of Lee Jae-myung, chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea, only a day away, the Democratic Party of Korea slammed the investigation and trial of Lee as a "judicial murder."

The power of the people set the day for the Democratic Party to leave the ruling to the judiciary and focus on the people's livelihood.

I'll connect you to the National Assembly reporter.

Reporter Hong Min Gi! Representative Lee Jae-myung's sentence of perjury teacher is just a day away, how is the atmosphere of the Democratic Party of Korea?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party of Korea is in a mood to maintain this representative system without wavering and maintain a single party.

Supreme Council member Kim Min-seok said at a press conference at the National Assembly in the morning that the judicial process, including Lee's first trial sentence and additional prosecution, was an attempt to kill Lee and kill him.

He said that such an attempt would rather unite citizens, stressing that there was no perjury or teacher on the charge of perjury teachers coming up tomorrow.

Representative Lee has recently refrained from making remarks that could be seen as pressure on the judiciary, saying it is not desirable to criticize the entire judiciary, not individual rulings.

Supreme Council member Kim Min-seok also added that the term "judicial murder" is a political murder using an incomplete judicial system rather than a murder by the judiciary.

On the other hand, the power of the people responded that the ruling is the job of the judiciary, and that the court will make a fair ruling according to the law and evidence.

Senior spokesman Han Ji-ah issued a comment, saying that there was no public response to yesterday's outdoor rally held by the Democratic Party, and that citizens' indifference is a sign of the full-fledged judicial risk.

He also pointed out that Lee's remarks that he believes in the judiciary and the Democratic Party's actual actions, such as the National Innovation Conference of the Democratic Party, a pro-democracy organization, signaling a protest in Seocho-dong.

People's Power urged the Democratic Party to stop trying to threaten the rule of law and put pressure on trials and return to the forum of discussions on people's livelihoods, including the parliamentary budget review.

Yes, the plenary session of the National Assembly is also scheduled this week, so please also tell us the prospects of the plenary session.

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party of Korea is vowing to push for a re-decision on the independent counsel law at the plenary session scheduled for the 28th if President Yoon Suk Yeol exercises his right to request reconsideration on the special counsel law of Kim Gun-hee, who passed the National Assembly.

He warned the government and the ruling party that if they reject the special prosecution to the end, the public's anger will spread like wildfire.

Even with the recent reshuffle of the presidential office, he argued that the influence of First Lady Kim and Myung Tae-kyun is in touch with the state affairs and that the essence is to replace the wrapping paper.

The Democratic Party also plans to report to the plenary session the impeachment motion against prosecutors, including Lee Chang-soo, head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, who dismissed Kim in connection with the alleged involvement of Deutsche Motors stock price manipulation.

On the other hand, even if they try to re-decide the Special Prosecutor Act, they are confident that they will prevent the power of the people without a vote of departure.

However, if the Democratic Party pushes for a permanent special prosecution instead of the Special Prosecutor Act, it is struggling to respond to it.

Internally, internal strife over the controversy over the "party member bulletin board" that criticized President Yoon and his wife in the name of representative Han and his family remains.

The People's Power was found to have recently conducted a full survey of 1,068 posts posted under the names of Han and Han's family.

Among them, 12 articles in the name of one representative were found to contain high-level swear words and slander, but
It is known that about half of the 907 articles posted under the name of a representative family
were political opinions, making it difficult to legally take issue with them.

In response, a representative official explained that they will file a complaint next week against those who spread false information in connection with the allegations.
