Candidate Jong-cheol Kim (50, photo), a former party representative, was elected as the new Justice Party chairman who will lead the ‘Post Shim Sang-jung’ system. At his inauguration, the new CEO Kim declared, “The Justice Party is a progressive party” and declared that it would surely remove the image of the so-called “Democratic Party.”
Representative Kim defeated Representative Jin-kyo Bae (44.43%) with a 55.57% vote on the results of the final party vote announced on the 9th. The election for the representative of the Justice Party, held due to the resignation of former CEO Shim Sang-jung, it was carried out by online voting from day 5.
In his acceptance speech, President Kim said: “Until now, the Justice Party has been recognized as a political party that evaluates the agenda created by both the Democratic Party and the Giants of People’s Power.” “Now that era is over and the two major parties are putting their position on the Justice Party’s agenda. Will come. I hope both parties are nervous. “
The Justice Party cooperated with the Democratic Party on important issues since Moon Jae-in took office, such as joining the Democratic Party in reviewing the electoral law at the time of the 20th National Assembly. However, as President Kim declared that he would follow the path of progress of the Justice Party itself, tensions with the Democratic Party are expected to form in the future. After the election, CEO Kim selected the Severe Accident Corporate Punishment Act and the employment and income insurance system for all people as future policy tasks. However, although it is a political party in the hospital, there is also a task to overcome the limitation of only six seats and the approval rate of the party, which has stagnated after the general elections 4-15. Kim, who entered politics in 1999 as Secretary of National Victory 21, Kwon Young-gil, is counted as one of the representative figures of the party that connects the Popular Democracy (PD) line. Representative Kim served as the last secretary of the former hospital representative Hoe-chan Roh and so-ha Yoon, the former chief secretary of the hospital representative and a senior party spokesperson. Although he has never been elected to the National Assembly, he has run for mayor of Seoul. In the first round of voting on the 27th of last month, President Kim reached the final, and in the final round with Representative Bae, he overcame the limitation of external personnel and finally won with the “Justice Party with a bold alternative as a progressive party. ”
