On the morning of today (30th), at the last Democratic Party Supreme Council meeting this year, remarks by the leadership criticizing Justice Minister Han Dong-hoon continued.
It is a pinch of Minister Han Dong-hoon, who explained the reason for the request for consent to the arrest of Congressman Woong-rae Noh on the 28th.
Chung Cheong-rae, the top member of the Democratic Party of Korea, said, "Of course, it was an issue that should have been rejected, but Minister Han Dong-hoon's mischievous 7-year-old child-like mistake made the vote even more concentrated."
Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myeong also helped criticize Minister Han Dong-hoon.
After Minister Han Dong-hoon's remark that "even the sound of receiving money envelopes is recorded," he joked, "I keep hearing strange sounds somewhere, and it sounds like Congressman Nam-guk Kim is receiving money envelopes, isn't it?"
In response, Congressman Kim Seong-hwan deliberately crumpled the paper and made a rustling sound.
Minister Han Dong-hoon actively refuted the controversy over the appropriateness of the 'explanation of the reason for requesting consent to arrest'.
"Seeing that the Democratic Party voted down overwhelmingly, it seems that my explanation was not excessive, but rather insufficient," he said. added.
Prosecutor's office said, "We will make sure that judicial processing is done through a prompt and thorough investigation," revealing its position as "a result that is not fair" in the 'rejection of Noh Woong-rae's arrest motion'.
