Since the so-called bilateral special prosecution was rejected at the plenary session of the National Assembly yesterday, the political community has again been in a fight over the next special prosecutor's vote.

In the meantime, the conflict is being expressed once again as floor leader Kwon Sung-dong reportedly visited lawmaker Kim Sang-wook and recommended him to leave the party yesterday.

Kim Sang-hoon, chairman of the policy committee, has started to explain the situation.

Let's listen to it.

[Kim Sang-hoon / Chairman of the People's Power Policy Committee (KBS) : Since he has been away from the party all along, why do we need to engage in political activities from the people's power? Wouldn't it be better to leave the party and engage in political activities as you want? You can understand it as this dimension. It is judged that there was a legal problem with all the special prosecution laws proposed so far. First of all, not only the right to recommend the special prosecutor, but the most important thing is the scope of the investigation, and the scope of the investigation was very ambiguous, and it has proposed a special prosecution law that enables investigation of virtually all actions. Although the Democratic Party says it is a third-party independent counsel law, it is necessary to carefully judge whether the contents of the bill can be accepted legally and in terms of the rule of law.

Rep. Jung Sung-ho of the Democratic Party said that he did not expect the approval of the independent counsel's bill, saying it was a threatening pressure on floor leader Kwon.

However, he left a bitter comment within the party, saying that the Democratic Party's efforts were insufficient.

He pointed out that it was necessary to persuade the ruling party member before the two-way special prosecution vote.

[Jung Sung-ho / Democratic Party member (SBS Kim Tae-hyun's political show): I didn't expect it. Isn't there a story that Representative Kwon Sung-dong strongly insisted on the rejection and met individually with lawmakers who were expected to approve it and made almost threatening pressure? I thought it would be rejected, and on the other hand, how much effort our Democratic Party made to pass, I think it was a little lacking. Anyway, I think there should have been such efforts to contact, talk, and persuade the ruling party members in various forms. Then, I personally think our party should have actively proposed amendments to this bill rather than voting right yesterday.

Meanwhile, former National Assembly Secretary-General Yoo In-tae told the back story of his visit to the Prime Minister's Office at the time of acting authority Han Deok-soo.

When Prime Minister Han Deok-soo drew a line over the appointment of a constitutional judge at the time, saying that he was surprised when he drew the line, saying that the ruling and opposition parties needed to agree,
It's a mystery why you made such a decision when you said you could appoint both the legal and academic circles
. Let's listen to it.

[Yoo In-tae / Former Secretary-General of the National Assembly (CBS Kim Hyun-jung's news show): I actually met Han Deok-soo at the Prime Minister's Office. Two or three days before I quit. What brought you here?) I was sick of the fact that the Supreme Court can do that, the Constitutional Court can do that, and that smart fellow suddenly became such a fool. So, it's natural for academics to appoint three judges to the Constitutional Court, right? If the Supreme Court did so, let's do that, and it's a mystery now. Why did the Constitutional Court judge reject it uncharacteristically like Han Deok-soo? Do the ruling and opposition parties. The degree of involvement in martial law is so, there are many people who are afraid of the Yoon Suk Yeol president's mouth. People I visit often these days....]
