Despite the ruling Democratic Party's decision to disapprove, Park Ji-hyeon, former chairman of the Joint Emergency Response Committee, officially announced today (15th) that he will run for the next party leader.
Former Chairman Park holds a press conference for the Democratic Party's candidacy in front of the National Assembly fountain at 9:30 am today.
Former Chairman Park asked several Democratic lawmakers to rent the press conference hall of the National Assembly Communication Hall, which can only be reserved for use by incumbent members, but it is known that they were all rejected.
Former Chairman Park said on SNS, "Do you really believe that electing 'Eo Dae-myung' without me is the way to innovate the party and win the next general election? Rep. Lee, please answer whether it is reasonable not to do it.”
