These standards must be applied equally to members of the ruling and opposition parties." Representative Ha said, ``Candidate Kang was sentenced to a fine for Drunk Driving in 2004. Representative Lee of the Democratic Party also received a fine in the same year.
He was sentenced to a fine for Drunk Driving,'' and added, ``Despite this, Lee ran for a seat in the National Assembly and became the party's representative. selfishness
