was decided not to build a new guesthouse, but in the political arena, the name of First Lady Kim Gun-hee went up and down, and a workshop continued.

The Democratic Party argued that it was reasonable to doubt whether Mrs. Kim was instructed, and rejected the people's power as a collective delusion.

Democratic Party said that it is not a matter of concluding that President Yoon Seok-yeol ordered the withdrawal of the plan to build a guesthouse.

Then, if the Blue House had been used as it is, the blood pressure that would not have cost a single won was wasted. He warned the people to be afraid, saying they are disappearing.



The People's Power dismissed the allegation of Mrs. Kim's involvement as a collective delusion of the opposition.



It was countered that it was intended to subdue various allegations and investigations targeting Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung.
