If left unchecked, 20,000 party members will ”leave the party”... Chairman Lee Jae-myung rushes to ”clear the situation” = South Korean opposition party

If we leave it alone... More than 20,000 members of the Democratic Party of Korea (Democratic Party), the largest opposition party in South Korea, have left the party. This is in protest against the results of the selection of the party's candidate by the National Assembly Speaker, Lee Jae-myeo.
On the 23rd, ahead of the memorial service for the late former President Roh Moo-hyun to be held in Gimhae, South Gyeongsang Province, Lee Jae-myung said,
In a live YouTube broadcast, he began by saying, "More than 20,000 people have now left the party. I think the disappointment is also great because expectations were high."
Lee said, "Many of those who have left the party this time have been active members of the Democratic Party for decades, even during difficult times."
"They may be thinking, 'Why aren't they respecting our feelings?' and 'Why aren't our feelings being acknowledged?'"
He continued, "I think it's more of an emotional debate than a rational debate.
"The reason for this may be that expectations and affection have grown stronger," he said. "When people look back on the results later, they may come to realize that their disappointment was excessive."
"It was not a wrong decision, and it is our responsibility to prove that it was a completely possible choice and judgment," Lee said. "If you give up, it's over. Please don't give up."
I would rather be scolded," he requested.
