Former President Lee Myung-bak, who is about to be imprisoned again due to the Supreme Court ruling, is staying in his home in Nonhyeon-dong, Seoul, where I am now.



It is known that shortly after the sentence of today (29th) morning, former lawmaker Jae-oh Lee and some of the people who were classified as close associates of the former president went into their homes and discussed the schedule for future reincarceration.



A while ago, after Rep. Jeong Jin-seok, the power of the people, entered his home, several vehicles and several personnel came out, but it is still unconfirmed that all personnel have come out.



Meanwhile, the position of former President Lee came out.



In a statement released through a lawyer, former President Lee said, "The rule of law is broken" and "I am worried about the future of the country." The reason that he went to trial was because of the expectation that the judiciary was the last bastion of liberal democracy. He said it was neither done nor just, and that the truth will surely be revealed.



Right now, several progressive YouTubers are broadcasting the situation in front of their homes or periodically shouting slogans for condemning the former president. Lee is expected to prepare for jail next Monday as he proceeds with the hospital visit scheduled for tomorrow.



Earlier, the lawyers also criticized the Supreme Court ruling in a primary way, saying that they would reveal the truth through any means possible, but they did not specifically mention what means or how to do it.
