'Dad Chance Controversy'... What is the remaining schedule focus?

<Anchor>

With the new government taking office next week, the hearings on 19 candidates for the State Council have now turned around.

Some candidates have already passed the hearing, others are strongly opposed by the Democrats, and others have yet to set a hearing date.

So, first of all, reporter Hwa Gang-yun will summarize the situation so far.

Of the 19 candidates for the first cabinet member of the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, 12 have completed the hearing process.

Of these, only three of them have adopted a hearing report by consensus of the ruling and opposition parties: Choo Kyung-ho, Deputy Prime Minister of Economy, Han Hwa-jin, Ministry of Environment, and Lee Jong-ho, nominee for Minister of Science and Technology.

The remaining nine are awaiting the adoption of the hearing report, but the Democratic Party has made it clear that they oppose the candidates of Prime Minister Han Deok-soo, Jeong Ho-young Welfare, Lee Sang-min Haeng-an, and Land Minister Won Hee-ryong.

Candidate Ho-Young Jeong, the final king of the privileged chance, and candidate Hee-Ryong Won of Beopka Nongdan will all have to follow the people’s orders to leave.]

The People’s Power urged the public to stop ‘holding back the new government’ and hasten the adoption of the report, saying that most of the allegations were clarified at the hearing. .

[Kwon Seong-dong/People's Power Floor Leader (Yesterday): If the Democratic Party continues to hold back the new government, it will not be able to avoid strong headwinds of public sentiment.]

What heated up the three-day hearing is the so-called 'Dad Chance' controversy.

Hearings were also interrupted.

Candidate Lee Sang-min for the Ministry of Public Administration and Security was questioned about his child's internship and employment preference, and Cho Seung-hwan, a candidate for Minister of Oceans and Fisheries, also was questioned for failing to provide data related to his children's charter financing.

Here is reporter Hwa Gang-yun, who just gave me the report.

[Reporter Hwa Gang-yun: Yes.

First of all, the hearing of the Minister of Agriculture and Forestry candidate Jeong Hwang-geun is scheduled for tomorrow (6th), followed by the hearing of the Minister of Justice candidate Han Dong-hoon next Monday, followed by the hearings of the Minister of Industry Lee Chang-yang, the medium-term minister Lee Young, and the unification minister Kwon Young-se until Thursday.

Candidate Hyun-sook Kim for the Minister of Recreation has not yet decided on the date of the hearing due to poor data submission, and the candidate for education minister is looking for again from the beginning due to the voluntary resignation of Candidate In-cheol Kim.]

[Reporter Hwa Gang-yun: Yes.

As soon as Han Dong-hoon was nominated, the Democratic Party protested, saying he was ineligible.

First of all, the hearing, which was scheduled for yesterday, has been postponed to next week because of poor data submission.

It is possible to collect as much data as possible and secure the time necessary for the attack, and the Democratic Party is expected to launch an offensive not only on the suspicion of a 'parent's chance' related to a candidate's child, but also on the 'indictment' that the Ministry of Airlift and Security has dismissed.

Song Young-gil, the Democratic Party mayor of Seoul, said, "If a candidate's suspicion of a 'parent's chance' is true, the gates of hell will open."

One candidate is planning to face off with a policy hearing, stating that it will reveal the problems and countermeasures in detail over the bill to separate the prosecution's investigative powers recently passed by the Democratic Party.]

[Reporter Hwa Gang-yun: Yes.

Even if the National Assembly hearing report is not adopted, the elected Yoon Seok-yeol can enforce the appointment of Han Dong-hoon as early as next week.

So, in the end, what the Democratic Party is leveraging is a method of linking the approval of Prime Minister Han Deok-soo, who can prevent his appointment by a vote.

Although the people's power is "does the linkage make sense?", there is an atmosphere that it is burdensome to lose the first prime minister candidate.

So, it seems that both parties will focus on preparing for next week's hearing while watching the trend of public opinion.]
