People Power Party Leadership Clash: Woo Jaejun Says "Everyone Should Resign," Jo Gwanghan Calls It "Immature Talk"

Woo Jaejun: "Jang Should Be Re-evaluated at the Next Party Convention"

Woo Jaejun, Supreme Council Member of the People Power Party, said on the 11th, "I am making a formal proposal to the party leadership," and added, "We should all resign. I hope we can open up the future for the next leadership."

Woo Jaejun, the Youth Supreme Member of the People Power Party, is leaving after the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly on the 11th.

On the morning of June 11, Woo Jaejun attended the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly and made these remarks. He stated, "The most important election in South Korea right now is the upcoming general election," and emphasized, "To overturn the numerous harmful laws that the Democratic Party of Korea has enacted while holding a majority for a long time, we must win the next general election. Our current leadership must open up the future for the next leadership so they can come in and prepare effectively."

Woo Jaejun continued, "Of course, I know that there are many people and party members who support our leadership," and added, "I also know that there are many party members who especially like Chairman Jang Donghyuk." He went on to say, "If that's the case, we should rather hold another party convention and run for re-election so that we are evaluated again. That way, even party members who are dissatisfied can accept the results and the party can unite once again."

After Woo Jaejun's remarks, Jo Gwanghan, another Supreme Council Member of the People Power Party, took the microphone and responded, leading to a brief exchange of raised voices between the two. Jo Gwanghan criticized, "Making such immature remarks in public is politically very inexperienced." In response, Woo Jaejun said, "How can you call my remarks immature?"

After the meeting, Woo Jaejun spoke with reporters and said, "What is the point of enduring for another year?" reiterating his call for the entire party leadership to resign. He pointed out, "(Regarding the shortage of ballot papers) all our lawmakers are angry," and added, "We should not think that this situation can only be resolved if Chairman Jang remains in his position."
