[앵커]

Recently, in the political world, rumors continue over the possibility of realizing the possibility of realizing the ‘in-prison nomination’ of Lee Jae-myung, the representative of the Democratic Party.

I feel a little hasty, but the prosecution’s investigation, such as the suspicion of ‘remittance to North Korea’, is speeding up, and various interpretations are divided as it interlocks with the so-called ‘Plan B’ brought out from some corners.

This is reporter Ahn Yoon-hak’s report.

The so-called ‘in-prison nomination’ controversy that Lee Jae-myung will hold the general election next year without giving up the representative position even if he is arrested by the prosecution.

They draw the line, saying that it is an impossible scenario with one voice, without any familiarity or screaming.

[정 성 호 / 민주당 의원(23일, CBS ‘박재홍의 한판승부’) : 민주당도 시스템이 있는 정당이고, 공천이 당 대표가 누구 찍어서 내보낸 게 아니거든요. 옥중 공천이라고 하는 그런 상황은 오지 않을 거다….]

[조응천 / 민주당 의원(22일, YTN라디오 ‘뉴스킹 박지훈입니다’) : 회의를 주재하고 의사결정을 해야 하는 그런 대표가 자유롭지 않다면, 그건 대표 유지를 할 수 있는 상황인가….]

However, there are still suspicions around the screaming world.

According to the party constitution, if you are accused of corruption, you must give up your representative authority, but if it is recognized as ‘political oppression’, you can keep your position.

[이원욱 / 민주당 의원(9일, MBC라디오 ‘김종배의 시선집중’) : 나는 옥중 공천이라도 하겠다고 하는 얘기들, 그게 아마 이재명 당 대표의 진심 어린 생각 아닐까 싶어요.]

In particular, the theory of nomination in prison is not easily subdued as it engages with the so-called ‘Plan B’ mentioned by the pro-name leadership.

[박 찬 대 / 민주당 최고위원(17일, MBC라디오 ‘김종배의 시선집중’) : 만에 하나 영장이 발부된다고 하면 어떻게 해야 되나 하는 ‘플랜B’에 대한 고민도 있는 것은 사실이거든요.]

The ‘orderly resignation theory’ in contrast to the extreme prison nomination is also one of the candidates for ‘Plan B’.

Although President Lee directly objected,

[이재명 / 더불어민주당 대표(25일, TJB 인터뷰) : 그렇게 하기를 바라는, 특히 여당이 그럴 것이고요. 역사에 없는 압도적 지지로 당 대표가 됐고, 지금도 그 지지는 유지되는 정도를 넘어서서 더 강화되는데….]

Only the point of view, such as ‘October resignation theory’ and ‘year-end second term retreat theory’, are only slightly different, but the expression of the move to win the general election and the theory of a grand victory remain hot potatoes.

[장성철 / 공론센터 소장(지난달, CBS ‘박재홍의 한판승부’) : 추석 이후 10월에 퇴진할 것으로 (이재명 대표가) 이미 생각을 하고 있고, 그래서 K 의원을 당 대표로 밀겠다, 40명의 의원을 다 지금 하나의 뜻으로 모았다….]

Some are even raising their heads to the prospect of holding a party convention in a structure favorable to the pro-Myeong system by increasing the influence of the right party members as suggested by the Innovation Committee.

Representative Lee continues to observe that he will maintain the influence of the ‘Sangwang’ as a presidential candidate under the protection of a new pro-Myeong representative.

Next week will be the first anniversary of CEO Lee Jae-myeong’s inauguration.

Rather than the evaluation of the past year, the party’s concerns about the remaining one year of the term are more encouraging the discussion of ‘Plan B’.
