Democratic Party Chairman Lee Jae-myung held a special press conference today (21st).
He said he had never received any illegal presidential funds, and he suggested a special prosecutor's investigation into the allegations of large-scale robbery.
Then, he immediately rejected this special prosecutor's proposal, saying that the people's power is a waste of time and water.

Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung held his first press conference in 54 days of his inauguration.
The content of the interview, titled 'Special', was tailored to the rebuttal and counterattack against the prosecution's investigation.
[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party Representative: It seems that they are even rigging it now.
The substantive truth of the case is distorted, and only the sound of a sword dance of political repression and retaliatory investigations toward the opposition party (noisily)]
He said this about the charge of receiving 800 million won in political funds from one of his closest aides, Kim Yong, deputy director of the Institute for Democracy.
[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party Representative: I did not receive a single candy, let alone any illegal election funds.]
He compared his innocence to candy, but in the afternoon, Vice-Chairman Kim only received 500,000 won officially during the 2018 Gyeonggi-do governor election. An additional explanation was added.
Regarding the suspicion of preferential treatment for Daejang-dong development, he accepted it as an official proposal for a special inspection system to the president and the ruling party.
[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party Representative: This is a good opportunity to shake off all suspicions.
I hope that the President and the ruling party must accept the Special Prosecution Act.]
In addition to all suspicions related to the development of Daejang-dong and Hwacheon Daeyu, the special prosecutor includes allegations of "Daejang-dong corruption, the investigation into the Busan Savings Bank, where President Yoon was the chief prosecutor, and the circumstances of the purchase of President Yun's father's house by the sister of Kim Man-bae, the major shareholder of Hwacheon Daewoo." Let's include it."
However, he added that it has nothing to do with the 'Kim Gun-hee special prosecutor' that the Democratic Party is promoting.
The people's power immediately rejected it, dismissing it as prolonging the prosecution's investigation time.
[Ho-Young Joo/People’s Power Floor Leader: The fact that he was bitten by President Yoon Seok-Yeol was the biggest culprit in the Daejang-dong incident, and it blurs the point (corresponding to the operation of water-riding and water ghosts.)
] I have already answered it."
