On the 11th, the Open Democratic Party proposed a bill that prevents practicing prosecutors and judges from running for public office for one year after their retirement. The social networking service (SNS) argued that the bill was addressed to Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol as “a law intended to ban Yoon’s presidential election.”
Those who support Yoon criticized the passport pressure on Yun, who criticized him, while those who criticized him cheered that the completion of the prosecution reform would prevent him from entering the political world.
On the 11th, the chairman of the Open Democratic Party, Choi Kang-wook, proposed an amendment to the Law on the Prosecutor’s Office and the Law on the Organization of the Court on the 11th. The amendment aims to increase the deadline for prosecutors and judges run for public office for one year to ensure political neutrality in investigation, prosecution and trial. Currently, prosecutors and judges must resign 90 days prior to election day to run for public office.
According to the bill, prosecutors or judges who intend to run in the next presidential elections scheduled for March 9, 2022, must withdraw before March 9 of next year. There are observations that this was directed at Yoon, who is mentioned as an opposition candidate. This is because Yun must resign from his post before March next year to stand in the presidential election.

Netizens were divided in half and had a fierce debate. Yoon’s supporter criticized “The Open Democratic Party is trying to ruin democracy.” Some netizens say: “How is democracy to break the law according to one’s taste?” I will fix the law so that only candidates can come to the presidential elections ”(1 ********).
There was also a response that Yoon’s approval rating would increase further with the bill. Netizens said, “It’s too cruel. Isn’t it possible to fix the law when Yoon runs first and second in support of the next presidential candidate?” (O *******) “I will give” (t *******), “The approval rating for President Yoon will increase, and he will be quite autonomous” (m *****).
On the other hand, those who criticized Yoon applauded that it was “a bill that prevents the politicization of the prosecution” and that they should focus more on reforming the prosecution. Netizens said: “Trust in the prosecution can only be restored when the organization of the prosecution, which has fallen into the party of the prosecution, separates from politics” (star ***), “If a prosecutor or a public official thinks about his choice and leaves politics at will, “No” (l *********), replied, “You should be punished for confusing the country by hiding the corruption of your wife and mother-in-law, instead of being a presidential candidate “(p *******) did.
Some responded that the deadline should be increased to two years and nailed down to ensure that Yoon does not appear in the next presidential election. Netizens said: “One year is not enough. If you want President Yun to not be able to participate in the presidential elections, you must increase it to two years” (2 *****), “This is the bill that people wants. Yun should not allow the president, but also have members of the National Assembly. No “(sleep ***) insisted.
