Regarding some criticism of him, he pointed out, "If we protect Lee Jae-myung (Chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea), is it democracy, but if we support the president from the Prime Minister's Office, is it far-right politics?"
On the same day, Rep. Cho appeared on a Korean radio program and asked, "Why aren't the first-term lawmakers of the Democratic Party of Korea who are protecting Lee Jae-myung criticized as 'far-left' and 'violating the constitutional order?'
"Are you saying that the fact that they went there to support the protesters without being stopped because no warrant was executed and that they are 'far-right'?" he continued.
They say, 'Representative Lee Jae-myung is a symbol of democracy and we must protect her,' but is that really right?" he pointed out.
"The president and the ruling party have said that they will undergo investigations while following legal procedures,"
"Therefore, shouldn't voluntary investigation be the rule?" he said. "Even Lee Jae-myung and Cho Kuk (former Fatherland Reform Party) were investigated without detention, so why is the president being investigated without detention?
Is this the case?" he asked.
