Regarding the December 3 martial law incident, the Democratic Party of Korea announced, “In order to quickly end the current chaotic situation, we will report next Monday against People Power Party officials and other political party YouTubers who engage in propaganda and agitation.”
Democratic Party lawmaker Lee Yong-woo said at the 4th meeting of the Special Committee on Overcoming Insurrection and State Stability held at the National Assembly on the morning of the 28th, “Even though the summary of the indictment against Kim Yong-hyun, who was arrested and indicted, clearly shows that he was guilty of treason, he still denies the rebellion and opposes impeachment. He said, “There is rampant propaganda and incitement that impeachment means civil war.”
He went on to say, “We will collectively file a complaint against those who claim the legitimacy of martial law.”
Chief Spokesperson Cho Seung-rae met with reporters after the special committee meeting and said, “(The list of accusers) includes approximately 10 people,” and “Main People Power Party politicians will be included.”
The Democratic Party pressured Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Strategy and Finance Choi Sang-mok, who took over as acting president following the impeachment of Prime Minister Han Deok-soo the day before, to appoint a Constitutional Court judge, saying, “Under normal circumstances, this is a cabinet that should have resigned en masse.”
Kim Min-seok, chairman of the special committee, said, “I hope that even now, we will do our last duty by finding public service ethics,” and added, “The Cabinet, including Acting President Choi, Yoon Seok-yeol, will promptly appoint a Constitutional Court judge and cooperate with the civil war adjudication process to avoid committing any more crimes against the people as public officials.” “We strongly recommend it,” he emphasized.
He added, “The Corruption Investigation Office must also trust the people without any further hesitation and arrest Yoon Seok-yeol,” adding, “The prompt arrest and dismissal of Yoon Seok-yeol is the only way to stabilize state affairs.”
