"Suspicions of interference in the appointment have been shaken by the name of a lawmaker." The Special Prosecutor Kim Kun-hee Act has a higher chance of passing than any other law we have re-approved so far. With public opinion running high over the prosecution's impending decision not to indict First Lady Kim Kun-hee, who is suspected of receiving luxury bags, and suspicions of interference in the appointments increasing, it is expected that the number of votes that will be taken away from the people's Power Party will be greater than before. President Yoon Seok-yeol is expected to exercise his veto (right to request review) on the Special Prosecutor Kim Kun-hee Act soon.

Rep. Kim said on MBC radio the same day, "There is a possibility" of a vote to leave the People's Power Party in connection with the new decision later. "There is evidence of various (Ms.) It is not easy for powerful lawmakers to turn a blind eye." "No matter how much we try to protect Ms. Kim and keep an eye on President Yoon, it is not easy to ignore these situations because this is a secret vote," he said. He stressed, "Because the People's Power Party is a political party that continually holds elections, unlike the president's office, it is impossible not to see the flow of public opinion."
Regarding suspicions of Ms. Kim's involvement in the nomination, Rep. Kim said, "It was a shocking incident that turned the lives of (People Power Party lawmakers) upside down by clinging to their lives. It is a matter of pride to protect Ms. Kim in a situation where such things are being revealed one by one." "There is also the problem of deterioration," he said. The law on special prosecutor Kim Kun-hee, passed at the National Assembly's plenary session, also includes allegations of Ms. Kim's interference in the nomination as a target of an investigation.
Recently, in the People Power Party circles (close to Han Dong-hoon), public voices have called on Ms. Kim to apologize to the public regarding her suspicions of receiving luxury bags and her interference in appointments.
On this, Rep. Kim said, "This is not an issue that will end with a simple apology, and it seems that CEO Han Dong-hoon or his camp is trying to resolve it somehow with an apology." It is natural to apologize, but it does not end with an apology," he argued.
