When Park Ji-hyeon, former chairman of the Democratic Party’s emergency countermeasures committee, claimed that Rep. Lee Jae-myung had ‘self-nominated’ during the June 1 local elections, Democratic Party party leaders came forward and demanded an explanation.

In an interview with MBC Radio’s ‘Kim Jong-bae’s Focus’ on the 25th, Rep. Seol-hoon, who was nominated for the Democratic Party’s leader, said, “It’s strange that an explanation has to come out, but it’s still not coming out.”

Rep. Seol said, “(Rep. Lee) was the governor of Gyeonggi Province and lost the presidential election and led the local elections, and took the role of the general election countermeasures committee chair, but I thought the nomination process was a bit strange.” If I did, I would have thought that there was something I could agree on.”

Rep. Seol then said, “It was strange to see Rep. Song Young-gil suddenly go to the district and come up as a candidate for Seoul mayor and come up with a composition like this.” said

Assemblyman Seol said, “Did you even think that you should become a member of the National Assembly? There was no legal problem, but we need to discuss such issues as whether it can be morally possible.”

Another party runner-up, Rep. Park Yong-jin, also requested an explanation from Rep. Lee. In an interview on YTN Radio’s ‘News King Park Ji-hoon’, Rep. Park said, “The story came out that, contrary to Assemblyman Lee’s claim that the party called him out, he asked to be called to the party.” If you listen to the candidates, critics of the Gyeyang nomination say that the election was really difficult (as they came out).

Rep. Park continued, “If, in that way, he could apply pressure and make a request to self-nominate even his own nomination issue, if Rep. Lee became the party leader in the general election, controversies would arise in various ways, such as the nomination of the supervisor and unfair intervention in the nomination. Of course, I am concerned that there is not enough possibility.”

Previously, on the 22nd, former Chairman Park Ji-hyeon said in an interview with the media, “Even at the time of the Incheon National Assembly election, Lee directly requested to nominate himself.” “There was a part where I called directly to do it and put pressure on them,” he claimed. Rep. Lee has not made a special position on Park’s allegations.

On the 24th, Vice Chairman Woo Sang-ho said about Lee’s ‘self-nomination’ controversy on the 24th, “I do not have the right to investigate the nomination process of the previous leadership. not,” he said.
