The People's Power strongly criticized the "insurrection independent counsel law," which the opposition party proposed again a day after the abolition of the bill, as a rough-and-ready legislation at the level of a box.

The Democratic Party of Korea reiterated the need for an investigation into President Yoon and his wife, saying that the Chae Sang-byung case, the suspicion of Myung-gyun, and the martial law incident are one body.

The Democratic Party of Korea proposed a special prosecutor again yesterday, a day after it was rejected at the plenary session of the National Assembly.

The power of the people itself is seen as a proof of hasty legislation, right?

[Reporter]
First of all, the ruling party is paying attention to the fact that there are more targets for investigation than existing bills.

According to the new bill, it is a critical logic that the general public who commented on the article could also be subject to investigation.

It is based on the fact that the propaganda and instigation of the act of rebellion was also added to the investigation.

He also pointed out that it is an "imperial special prosecutor" who will catch all those who do not like the "Lee Jae-myung force" despite the fact that there are provisions for investigation into related complaints and accusations.

At the morning meeting, floor leader Kwon Sung-dong also compared the new bill to the "box change" independent counsel law, and we will listen to it in person.

[Kwon Sung-dong / People's Power Floor Leader: The Democratic Party of Korea is doing well as if the special prosecution law was a great concession, but in reality, it is only a box-shifting special prosecution law that only changed the packaging. Of course, we cannot accept this special investigation law.]

It is also problematic that the crime of foreign exchange, which was not in the scope of the existing investigation, was added, that is, the crime of secretly conspiring with foreign countries to threaten the existence of the state.

Kwon Young-se, chairman of the emergency committee, refuted that if foreign exchange includes various defense drills against North Korea's provocations, it is a problem in itself, and the perception that North Korea is viewed as a foreign country is theoretically a big problem.

The ruling party is also considering proposing its own independent counsel proposal as if it were conscious of public opinion.

The key official in the floor told YTN, "Let's not give confusion as investigations are already underway by other agencies, or
It is said that there are various opinions, including that it is also meaningful to gather and conduct investigations that are scattered simultaneously
in one place.

In the party, Joo Jin-woo, chairman of the legal advisory committee, is preparing a bill, and plans to hold a general meeting of lawmakers around next week to continue the discussion.

The opposition party says it can't make any more concessions, right?

[Reporter]
The opposition party left the recommendation of the special prosecutor candidate to a third party, not a political party, the chief justice, as the ruling party demanded,

The opposition party has also taken out the "vito right," which is the authority to demand re-recommend candidates, but they are asking what the problem is.

In a phone call with YTN, a floor official said, "The key is who recommends the special prosecutor, but I didn't hide my displeasure that I have nothing to say if I refuse it even though I've already made all the concessions I can."

Criticism of the rough-and-ready legislation proposed a day after the rejection refuted that the existing bill had already been preparing a new one because it was expected to be "unresolved."

Rep. Kim Yong-min drew the line in a CBS radio interview that only one "foreign exchange crime" has been added and that the scope of the investigation has not changed.

At the same time, ruling party lawmakers argued that they distorted the bill because they thought they would be investigated indefinitely because they knew how big their mistakes were.

The Democratic Party of Korea continues to pressure the ruling party not only with the independent counsel for the rebellion, but also with the independent counsel Kim Gun-hee and the independent counsel for Chae Sang-byung.

Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the party, raised his voice at a leadership meeting that these three are one body, and we will listen to them for ourselves.

[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: Yoon Suk Yeol and Kim Gun-hee are the biggest risks in Korea. Investigation of Yoon Suk Yeol and Kim Gun-hee, the core bodies of the Marine Chae case, the Myung Tae-kyun case, and the December 3 emergency martial law, must be carried out.]

{Park's floor leader even raised suspicions that it was possible to infer that he even went to emergency martial law to prevent the ugly bare face of President Yoon and his wife from being revealed by Myung Tae-kyun's disclosure.

Referring to former Marine Corps investigator Park Jung-hoon, who was acquitted in the first trial, Lee Jae-myung also said he would push for the special prosecution law again to find out how the corporal died, including prosecution and maintenance of prosecution.
