Then, let’s take a closer look with reporter Lim Hyeon-joo, who covers the power of the people.
Reporter Lim, who said he would revise the party constitution and create a new non-captain, it seems that the opposition within the party is not formidable.
What is the reaction of former CEO Lee Jun-seok, who applied for injunction?
◀ reporter ▶
Yes, it is known that he is currently staying in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk area, but since the decision to go to Captain Sabi was made, there has been no public statement of position yet.
Former Chairman Lee Jun-seok had predicted that if the party maintains the existing non-captain, another injunction will be issued.
However, it seems that the people’s power has created a new evacuation, that is, a kind of detour, so it seems that they are thinking about countermeasures such as reviewing the law.

By the way, didn’t the Ethics Committee decide yesterday to demand additional disciplinary action against former CEO Jun-seok Lee?
◀ reporter ▶
Yes, I humiliated the party members by calling President Yoon and pro-Yun-gye lawmakers dog meat, lamb meat, and new military.
It is also the reason that President Yoon took the lead in interfering with the operation of state affairs and the party.
At the National Assembly yesterday, it is said that this conclusion was reached after raising hands of votes over what to do with the additional punishment of former CEO Lee Jun-seok.
Former Chairman Lee is already under severe disciplinary action by suspension of his party membership for six months.

Was the reason for disciplinary action such as allegation of sexual harassment and damage to dignity?
◀ reporter ▶
Yes, that’s right. However, if you look at the rules of the People’s Power Ethics Committee, Article 21(6) states that if additional reasons for disciplinary action occur after disciplinary action, more severe disciplinary action will be taken.
Of course, if the punishment is more severe than 6 months, the period of suspension of party membership can be extended, but it is also possible to recommend leaving the party or expulsion.
From Lee’s point of view, it means that we are facing a ‘threat of ouster’, so it seems inevitable.

My redness will not subside easily.
In the end, the big direction of a new captain came out, but the road ahead doesn’t seem easy, right?
◀ reporter ▶
Yes, a non-captain meeting was scheduled tomorrow morning, presided over by floor leader Kwon Seong-dong.
This is the former non-captain without Chairman Ho-Young Joo.
Somebody has to hold the key to amending the party constitution and party rules to create a new non-captain, so it will go under the floor leader system for the time being.
However, within the party, there are criticisms that this is a trick that directly violates the purpose of the court’s decision.
In fact, it is predicted that the new non-commissioned members will have almost the same face as Chairman Joo Ho-young.
In the end, it is a one-point revision to heal only legal flaws.
People’s Power, Democratic Party The recent revision of the party constitution was criticized as Lee Jae-myung’s bulletproof use and the Great Man’s Law, so he is in a position to get the arrow back.
