Fatherland Reform Party: ”Itaewon Special Act passed in the National Assembly plenary session, good thing it was delayed...We will closely monitor the special investigation committee” = South Korea
On the 2nd, after the Itaewon Disaster Special Act was passed in the National Assembly plenary session, the Fatherland Reform Party said, "It's good that it was passed late. We will monitor whether the special investigation committee completes its work properly."

Thanks to the bereaved families who made concessions to allow the ruling and opposition parties to reach an agreement, the bill was passed by the National Assembly today," Kang Mi-jeong, spokesperson for the Fatherland Reform Party, said in a written statement that afternoon.
"The Itaewon Special Act passed today is a result of the people who raised their voices together to 'uncover the truth.'" Kang said, "The Itaewon Special Act passed today is a bill to investigate the tragedy that occurred in the center of Seoul in the fall of 2022.
"This will be the first step in finding the truth of the matter. It will be the first step in finding those responsible and taking measures to prevent recurrence," he said.
"I hope that this will be a small comfort to the Korean people who are heartbroken by this incident," Kang said. "The amendments agreed upon by the ruling and opposition parties are not enough to uncover the truth behind the Oct. 29 tragedy.
"It may not be possible, but the Fatherland Reform Party will monitor whether the special committee completes its work properly. Above all, we will watch to see whether the government interferes with the committee's activities."
"Once again, I pray for the repose of the souls of the victims and offer words of comfort to their families," he said.
