candidates faced off was the so-called 'indictment of accusation', which has recently been controversial.



There was a debate over the appointment of Prosecutor Son Jun-seong, who was designated by some as the party who wrote the complaint, and the location of responsibility for it.



[Lee Nak-yeon / Democratic Party Primary Candidate: Son Jun-seong, Investigative Information Policy Officer? Why did you appoint such a person to that position, and you were a minister at the time?]



[Chu Mi-ae/Democratic Party Primary Candidate: Yoon Seok-yeol In the lobby, there were also people who covered the party. It was also in the Blue House.] In



particular, after the remarks of candidate Choo Mi-ae that there was a 'lobby' in the process of appointing prosecutor Sohn, additional questions followed.



[Park Yong-jin / Democratic Party Primary Candidate: You mean that you asked the Justice Minister at the Blue House and within the Democratic Party to appoint a prosecutor? Who are you? I think you should tell me.]



'Basic Income', the representative promise of Candidate Jae-myung Lee, who had previously won 'a majority of five consecutive victories' in the primary, has been on the board again.



[Kim Doo-kwan / Democratic Party Primary Candidate: If it is universally received, it is 316 trillion? Do you think that policy (basic income) will not be settled until 20 years or so?]



Candidate Jae-myung Lee, the 'leader', focused on explaining his promises, but put a question mark on the policies and judgments of Candidate Nak-yeon Lee, who placed second place in check.



[Lee Jae-myung/Democratic Party Primary Candidate: I have some doubts about our candidate's concept of justice. Why should 88% and 88.01% be discriminated against?]



Candidates will go down to 'Gwangju/Jeonnam' tomorrow, which will be the 'largest vote field' and the watershed of this election, to participate in the 9th TV debate after the primary.
