Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung said, "I said that during the presidential election on the Hwacheon Daeyu issue, there is a need to continue the special prosecutor's office."
Representative Lee Jae-myung answered today (the 5th) when reporters after the Supreme Council asked about the so-called 'double special prosecutor'.
Some observers have observed that Lee can accept a 'double special prosecutor', which conducts a special prosecutor at the same time on the allegations raised against him and Kim Gun-hee.
The background of President Lee's remarks today goes back to his presidential election.
When President Lee, who was the Democratic presidential candidate at the time, insisted on a special prosecutor targeting him in the People's Power in connection with the suspicion of preferential treatment for the development of Daejang-dong, President Yoon, who was then the then-People's Power candidate, also proposed a 'double special prosecutor' saying that it was related to the Daejang-dong suspicion.
However, CEO Lee did not specifically mention the special prosecutor related to Mrs. Kim Kun-hee.
