Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, said, ”Former President Yoon Seok-yeol has hated me since he joined the People Power Party... Do people think he conspired to interfere in the nomination process?” (South Korea)

Lee Jun-seok, the former leader of the People's Power Party, said on the 4th, "Former President Yoon Seok-yeol has hated me since he joined the party. He conspired against me in the nomination process.
"How much will the public believe that?" he asked. After the Supreme Committee meeting at the National Assembly that morning, Lee told reporters that the special prosecutor Kim Gun-Hee's decision on the 28th of last month
This is the first time that Lee has spoken out about his thoughts on the special prosecutor's investigation and the house search in an official capacity.
Lee said, "From the perspective of the special prosecutors, we will strive to achieve results in all directions.
"However, in reality, I would like them to work hard to prove the charges against former President Yoon and his wife Kim Kun-hee. All-round pressure on the political world is not the right direction."
Regarding Chairman Chung Cheong-rae, who was elected as the leader of the Democratic Party two days ago, Lee said, "He made a series of sharp remarks from the very beginning."
If they take a hard-line approach, the conflict between the ruling and opposition parties will reach a breaking point, regardless of the number of seats they hold."
In addition, the Supreme Committee's public statement stated, "We are promoting KOSPI 5000 while acting anti-market.
"Putting out such a policy is like putting meat in sheep's clothing," he said, and focused his criticism on the economic policies of the Lee Jae-myung administration. In particular, Lee said that he would raise the transfer tax threshold for major shareholders from the current 5 billion won (approximately 500 million yen).
Regarding the proposed tax reform that would lower the taxable income limit from 33.36 million won (approximately 106.67 million won) to 1 billion won (approximately 106.67 million won), he said, "It's exactly the same as the past controversy over the financial investment tax. It will not affect individual investors."
Even if the market reacts to the anxiety, the year-end is always a time when a sell-off trend is triggered, and investors who know that a sell-off will trigger a market downturn at the end of the year tend to buy stocks before that.
It will reduce production and shrink the market."
