The Democratic Party protested that it was a deliberate delay strategy to save President Yoon.

Does the power of the people mean that they won't proceed with the process of selecting constitutional judges?

[Reporter]
Yes, as the Constitutional Court is speeding up its hearing on the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, floor leader Kwon Sung-dong of the People's Power argued this morning that he cannot appoint three vacant constitutional judges until the results of the impeachment trial are released.

He cited the reason that it is unfair for Acting President Han Deok-soo to exercise his authority to appoint judges of the Constitutional Court, an independent constitutional institution, beyond the administration.

At the time of former President Park Geun Hye's impeachment, Acting President Hwang Kyo-ahn also appointed a judge after the Constitutional Court's decision to dismiss the president, saying that at least the same precedent should be followed this time.

At that time, the Democratic Party also strongly criticized the appointment of Acting Constitutional Judge Hwang Kyo-ahn, pointing out that the Democratic Party is also responsible for making the Constitutional Court a "six-member system."

In response, the Democratic Party strongly criticized that the people's power to make the president's impeachment trial heard in the Constitutional Court's "six-member system" as a drag to save President Yoon.

It is a trick to expect representative Lee Jae-myung's criminal trial to proceed quickly before aiming at the fact that the president can be dismissed only when six judges agree unanimously.

Floor leader Park Chan-dae argued in the morning meeting that Kwon Sung-dong's claim was nothing more than a ridiculous pun and that it is desirable to proceed with the hearing in a nine-member system to ensure the fairness of the impeachment trial.

All vacant constitutional judges are recommended by the National Assembly, and if the ruling and opposition parties elect, the president will only go through the appointment process, refuting that it makes no sense that the acting president cannot do it.

The People's Power should elect the emergency committee chairman after the resignation of former CEO Han Dong-hoon, right?

How's it going?

[Reporter]
Inside the People's Power, senior members of the floor, including Kwon Young-se, Kim Ki-hyun, and Na Kyung-won, are mentioned as candidates.

In a phone call with YTN, a key ruling party official explained the background that the current party needs a quick fix, and it is not normal to find and persuade people outside.

In addition, some said that it is no longer possible to establish an outsider, or "Yong-byeong," as the leader of the party due to the impeachment of President Yoon and the resignation of former Chairman Han Dong-hoon.

Of course, the close circle strongly criticizes this trend.

Representative Cho Kyung-tae criticized in an SBS radio interview that pro-Yoon-gye is speaking out because he thinks only about their safety, as he should start with a crime against the public in the martial law and impeachment.

The Democratic Party also pointed out that the ruling party returned to the "road pro-yoon party" without any remorse.

In a phone call with YTN, Cho Seung-rae, a senior spokesman, said, "Can we call the power of the people a normal party now?" and accused the party of the rebellion.

Do you think the ruling and opposition parties are very different on how to stabilize state affairs?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Democratic Party of Korea is calling for the participation of the people in the National Security Consultative Body proposed by Representative Lee Jae-myung.

Acting President Han Deok-soo warned that the National Assembly and the opposition should now be accepted as one of the pillars of state administration, and that he should not veto controversial bills such as the Grain Management Act, which passed the National Assembly.

In a phone call with YTN, a key Democratic Party official expressed expectations, saying that the government has not tried to talk to the opposition at all, but it is now possible to talk to acting Han Deok-soo.

However, the public's response to power is different.

Kim Sang-hoon, chairman of the policy committee, said that the ruling party is the power of the people, and drew a line that the government and the ruling party will resolve pending state affairs starting with a high-level party-government council from the 20th.

In a phone call with YTN, a senior member of the ruling party criticized Lee Jae-myung for acting like a leader because the president was impeached, saying, "It is abominable that the budget and impeachment overturned the state affairs."
