Jang Donghyuk, leader of the People Power Party, and independent lawmaker Han Donghoon clashed once again on September 25 over the issue of Han’s rejoining the party. Jang stated, "It is inappropriate to even mention the matter of rejoining the party until the issue with the (People Power Party’s) members' message board, which is under investigation, is resolved." In response, Han countered, "He is interfering with me yet again in the midst of all this."

Appearing on NewDailyTV’s YouTube channel earlier that day, Jang commented on the members’ message board incident, saying, "It is connected to every juncture that has led to tragic situations such as the conservative party being torn apart and the waning of presidential driving force in the previous administration."


This incident refers to allegations that posts criticizing former president Yoon Suk Yeol under Han and his family’s names were published on the People Power Party’s official website members’ board. A police investigation is currently underway. Jang commented, "I believe Han’s conduct has not changed significantly even now that he has become a lawmaker."



Han also struck back. Through his social media account that day, he stated, "Jang is interfering with me yet again in the midst of all this," and added, "If you don’t want conservatives to fight and win, just keep wearing the king flower badge and banging the drum." Han was criticizing Jang’s ongoing visits to the protest site at Olympic Park regarding the ballot shortage incident in the 9th nationwide local elections.
