Democratic Party's Real Estate Special Committee came up with a tentative plan to ease the tax on property taxes by paying only the top 2% a week ago. However, the pain continues after about 60 members of the lawmakers collectively protested against the tax cuts for the rich.

The proposal of the Democratic Party's real estate special committee is to change the target of comprehensive real estate tax from the current 'public price exceeding 900 million won' to the 'top 2%'.



At the current rate, the top 3.7%, 526,000 households, would have to pay the final tax at the end of this year, but this will drop sharply to 2% or 280,000 households.



It is said that it reflects Song Young-gil's will to appease the real estate public's sentiments exposed by the re-election disastrous defeat and to broaden the party's horizons in the midst of the presidential election.



But within the party, a collective protest erupted.



On the 10th, at the suggestion of lawmaker Shin Dong-geun, pro-moon, 63, or 36% of the party's members, expressed their opposition to the tax relief.



If policy coherence breaks down, the goodwill of easing the tax burden will disappear and the housing market may become more serious.



Some of the party also criticized it as a 'tax cut for the rich', but CEO Song and others refuted, saying, "This year, more than 4 trillion in the tax on property taxes will be lifted."

In the course of discussion with the party leadership, a '3% mediation plan' was proposed between the current 3.7% and the special yuan 2%, but it is said that a conclusion has not been reached yet.



The Democratic Party leadership is planning to hold a general meeting of the House of Representatives within this week to close the issue, but as there is a collective backlash, labor is expected until the final draft is drawn up.
