[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Won Yoo-chul, leader of the Future Korea Party, criticized on the 18th, saying, "On the 40th anniversary, to inherit the democratic spirit of the Gwangju 5·18 and to console the bereaved families, the Korean Party tried to participate in the ceremony at the party level, but the Moon Jae-in government told us not to come."

On the same day, Leader Won said on Facebook, "I am now going to Gwangju," and added, "Even without an invitation, if it is a path we must take, we will go, and we will not refrain from going just because we are told not to go on a path we must walk together."

Leader Won stated, "The Korean Party is not a party that goes this way when the Moon Jae-in government and the Democratic Party say so, and goes that way when they say so," and criticized, "Democratic Party leader Lee Hae-chan says to quickly merge with the United Future Party and threatens to take drastic measures if they do not merge. The birth of the proportional representation party was unilaterally pushed through by the current administration and the Democratic Party as a political monster coalition called the 4+1 negotiation body, using the fast-track process."

Leader Won emphasized, "We founded the party in self-defense, and the people gave the most support to the Korean Party," adding, "The Korean Party is the third party with 20 incumbent lawmakers and 19 lawmakers in the 21st National Assembly, and in this general election, it became the number one party chosen by the people, surpassing the ruling party's proportional representation party, the Democratic Citizens' Party."
