The personnel hearing for Justice Minister candidate Han Dong-hoon was confirmed on the 9th.
The Legislative and Judiciary Committee of the National Assembly passed a plan to change the implementation plan for personnel hearings for a candidate at a general meeting on the morning of the 4th.
The hearing, which was originally scheduled to be held today, has been postponed after difficulties due to issues such as disagreements between the ruling and opposition parties on the adoption of witnesses and insufficient data submission.
However, the war of nerves continued, with the Democratic Party facing the risk of being crippled once again by opposing the witnesses that had already been agreed upon today.
In the first remarks of his standing committee, Democratic Party lawmaker Song Ki-heon said, "I oppose the application for a witness against accountant Kim Kyung-ryul, who was requested by the People's Power from among the tentatively agreed witnesses."
Rep. Song said, "You cannot have a person who publicly swears at a lawmaker on the witness stand."
Rep. Kim Jong-min and Kim Young-bae of the same party also supported Rep. Song's argument.
Accountant Kim, who is also a co-author of 'Black Book of the Fatherland', recently posted abusive language against Democratic Party member Choi Kang-wook on his social media service (SNS).
Rep. Jo Su-jin of People's Strength protested, saying, "This is a matter that has been negotiated between the secretaries of the ruling and opposition parties." "Do at least finish internal coordination. What are you so afraid of (one candidate hearing)?"
Representative Yoo Sang-beom of the same party also said, "Isn't it accountant Kim and Young-jin Park (Prosecutor General of Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office) as compensation for Lim Eun-jung and Han Dong-soo?
However, the plosive sound that occurred over Accountant Kim was closed after the banquet, as the Democratic Party decided to maintain the adoption opinion.
