<Anchor> The
schedule for the June special session has begun in earnest.
One of the key bills that the ruling party has announced at this extraordinary session of the National Assembly is the compulsory installation of CCTV in operating rooms.
While the medical community is strongly opposed and the people's strength is also showing a cautious stance, today (16th), Gyeonggi Governor Lee Jae-myung and People's Power Representative Lee Jun-seok had a fierce debate over this bill.
First news, this is reporter Lee Hyun-young.

The new trigger for the 'operating room CCTV debate' is the words of Lee Jun-seok, the People's Power, CEO.
[Lee Jun-seok/CEO of People's Power (last 14th, KBS Radio): For example, doctors can be very passive in medical practice.] The
purpose is that "additional social discussion is necessary".
Gyeonggi Governor Lee Jae-myung, who has advocated for mandatory CCTV in the operating room, wrote on SNS, "I was disappointed with Lee's reserved position."
He also emphasized the previous claim that "the operating room CCTV will protect the people from illegal medical care and sexual harassment."
An hour later, CEO Lee counterattacked with the same SNS.
"It is a caricature of politics to accept that the position of being cautious about installing CCTV is to condone illegal medical care or sexual harassment," he said.
Then, this time, Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Nam-guk went to cover the governor, saying, "How do you criticize the overwhelming support of public opinion as an argument for promoting good and evil?"
Opposition parties are in conflict with the legislation to make CCTV mandatory for operating rooms
[Song Young-gil / Democratic Party Representative: 'Operating room CCTV installation method' is also urgently needed. We look forward to the active cooperation of the opposition on the proposal of the Uri Party. It is a law that is directly related to the lives of the people.]
[Lee Jun-seok / Representative of People's Power: If you approve of the legislation in this way rather than the content, it is good, and if it is opposed, it is bad. .] As the
ruling party with 174 seats and policy initiative, it has a will to bring in an up-and-coming opposition leader to raise the front line, and Chairman Lee Jun-seok is also clear that he will not back down, so the confrontation is expected to become steeper.
