Lee Nak-yeon, representative of the Democratic Party, speaks at an expanded executive meeting held in the National Assembly Hall on the morning of the 20th. [사진 출처 = 연합뉴스]Woo Sang-ho, a member of the Democratic Party, said on KBS Radio’s ‘Kim Gyeong-rae’s Strongest Preview’ that “(Chu) informed the president and the announcement that the president did not respond is the reaction of the Blue House. In that sense, President Yoon voluntarily gave Me the time and opportunity to make the decision, “he said.” If (President Yoon) gives the first opportunity to resign and if he persists in not resigning until the end, the president should be dismissed at the right time. ”
Democratic Party lawmaker Chung Cheong-rae also said on his Facebook page the day before: “If you look at the content of Minister Chu Mi-ae’s announcement, the content of the disciplinary motive allegations is so specific and vast that it’s not easy for President Yoon Suk-yeol to call. ” I hope President Yoon Seok-yeol will also clarify that it is due to laws and principles. I support Minister Choo Mi-ae. ”
Former lawmaker Son Hye-won also said, “If it weren’t for our president, President Chu, it would have been done,” he wrote, “Where are all the parents?”
On the other hand, the opposition opposed the removal of President Yoon from the post.

Ho-Young Joo, Representative of the National Force. [사진 출처 = 연합뉴스]“President Moon Jae-in is so strange. Even though Choo is blatantly trying to oust Yun, who is trying to investigate the corruption of the living power,” said Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the People’s Power, on his SNS. He pointed out that he is trying to help the minister’s brutality and expel Yun together. ”
At a meeting of Yulsa lawmakers held in the National Assembly this day, Ho-young Joo said: “It is regrettable that Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae yesterday referred Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol to the Disciplinary Committee and suspended his charge as black history in our constitutional history or legal investigation. “The Chu rebellion is also a problem, but President Moon, who has tolerated and enjoyed it in some way, is much more problematic,” he said.
Na Gyeong-won, a former judge and former member of the Future Integration Party (now the People’s Power), also posted on his Facebook page: “Yoon Seok-yeol’s impression of the Moon administration is the impression of the people, democracy. The official declaration of dictatorial politics. ” Democracy has faced a great crisis. Much more serious things will happen in the future. ”
Meanwhile, Democratic Party lawmaker Cho Eung-cheon was the first voice of criticism within the party for Choo’s exclusion from duties against President Yoon. On his Facebook page, he said, “If you launch a public prison agency and exclude Yoon Seok-yeol (from your job), is the criminal justice judge right?” And “Is it possible to claim the exclusion and disciplinary action of the attorney general who is the first in constitutional history? And I can’t help asking if it helps the country and society.”
