Q. Let’s take the time to intensively analyze the results of the 22nd general election and make an outlook for the future political situation. The Democratic Party of Korea has 175 seats, including proportional parties, and the People Power Party has 108 seats, including proportional parties. I think it can be summarized as a record-breaking victory for the opposition party, including the Democratic Party, and a crushing defeat for the ruling party, the People Power Party. How did you two interpret the public sentiment revealed by the general election results?

Q. This general election was an unusual election that was held based on the so-called ‘judgment of the other side’, ‘judgment of the regime’ versus ‘judgment of the government’. The conclusion is that voters chose to ‘judge the government.’ What factors would you say?

Q. With the pan-opposition party taking over 190 seats, it appears they will once again take the lead in legislation and continue to keep the government in check. Over the past two years, the opposition party has repeatedly passed bills alone and the president has exercised his veto. What is the outlook for the 22nd National Assembly?

Q. Let’s take a look at the future actions of those who are considered to be the next presidential candidates. Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, was elected, defeating People Power Party candidate Won Hee-ryong. There was controversy over the nomination, calling it a ‘pro-Myeong accident’, but in the end, the largest party with 175 seats was reborn. Can we say that a solid path has been laid before Representative Lee?

Q. People Power Party Emergency Committee Chairman Han Dong-hoon resigned from his position today along with an apology to the public. As he appealed until the end, he blocked the pan-opposition party’s 200-seat constitutional amendment election, but eventually took responsibility for the crushing defeat in the general election and resigned. At the same time, he left room by saying that he would think about ways to regain the love of the people. What do you think of Chairman Han’s political future?

Q. Cho Kuk, the leader of the Cho Kuk Innovation Party, has established himself as the representative of the third largest party in the National Assembly. If you add the Democratic Party’s seats to the Homeland Innovation Party’s seats, the number of seats exceeds 180, enough to nullify the National Assembly Advancement Act. There are also predictions that the Fatherland Innovation Party will be a game changer in the 22nd National Assembly. What do you think about that?

Q. If Representative Cho Kuk’s second sentence is confirmed by the Supreme Court, he will lose his seat as a member of the National Assembly. If Representative Cho Kuk is removed from the Fatherland Innovation Party, will the Fatherland Innovation Party be able to maintain its identity? What do you think about that?

Q. There are many elected candidates who are a hot topic in this election. Among them, I think the election of Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, is one of the top topics. Although he struggled in the opinion polls, he eventually succeeded in winning the golden cross at the last minute. The New Reform Party also secured proportional representation seats. What do you think of Representative Lee Jun-seok’s political future?

Q. The New Future and Green Justice Party are in a gloomy mood. Neither party secured a single seat in proportional representation. Fortunately, New Future secured one seat in the constituency with the election of Rep. Kim Jong-min, and the Green Justice Party became an outside party. Today, Rep. Sim Sang-jeong announced his retirement from politics. What does the future hold for Third Zone political parties?

Q. Let’s go to the President’s office. President Yoon said, “I will humbly reform in compliance with the will of the people.” Prime Minister Han Deok-soo expressed his gratitude, and his staff at the senior secretary level and above also expressed their gratitude. Some say that the remaining three years of President Yoon Seok-yeol’s term are the greatest political crisis. How should we reform state affairs?

Q. What changes should the Democratic Party show in the 22nd National Assembly?
