Jang Donghyuk: "It's Inappropriate to Even Mention Han's Reinstatement" Han Donghoon: "Hindering Me Again?"

Jang Donghyuk, leader of the People Power Party (PPP), and independent lawmaker Han Donghoon clashed again on September 25 over the issue of Han’s reinstatement to the ruling party. Jang stated, "It is inappropriate to even mention the reinstatement issue until the investigation into the (PPP) party member bulletin board incident is resolved." In response, Han retorted, "Amid all this, he's hindering me yet again."

Earlier that morning, in an appearance on NewDailyTV’s YouTube channel, Jang commented on the party member bulletin board incident, saying, "All the circumstances that led to the conservative party being torn apart, the loss of presidential leadership in the previous administration, and such tragic outcomes are all related to this situation."

This incident refers to suspicions that posts criticizing former President Yoon Suk Yeol were uploaded to the official PPP website's party member bulletin board under the names of Han and his family. A police investigation is currently underway. Jang stated, "I believe Han’s behavior has not changed significantly, even now as a lawmaker."

Han also mounted a counterattack. On social media that day, he said, "In the midst of all this, Jang is once again obstructing me," adding, "If you don't want the conservatives to fight and win, just keep wearing your king’s sash and banging the drum." Han was criticizing Jang’s continued visits to the Olympic Park rally site in connection with the ongoing controversy surrounding the shortage of ballots in the 9th nationwide local elections.
