Conservative Commentator Slams Politician as 'Democratic Party's Hidden Weapon'

Conservative commentator Jo Gab-je has sharply criticized Jang Dong-hyuk, a figure within the People Power Party, labeling him a "hidden weapon" and a "secret campaign worker" for the rival Democratic Party. Jo asserted that election results have validated these accusations, suggesting Jang acted as a facilitator and operative for the Democrats.

He was indeed the Democratic Party's strategic asset and hidden weapon.

In a social media post, Jo Gab-je stated that the election outcomes confirmed the "ridicule" of Jang being a "helper, darling, and secret campaign worker for the Democratic Party" was accurate. He further argued that the reconstruction of the People Power Party must begin with expelling individuals deemed "election conspiracy theorists" and "Democratic Party infiltrators" who violated party rules.

The ridicule that he is the Democratic Party's helper, darling, and secret campaign worker has been confirmed as factual by the vote count.

Jo Gab-je elaborated on his criticism, claiming that Jang Dong-hyuk's group not only denied constitutional principles and facts but also, due to their "far-right nature" and affinity for the "extreme left," served the Democratic Party. He previously suggested that while Jang's faction of the People Power Party lost, the "true conservatives" represented by Oh Se-hoon, Han Dong-hoon, and Yoo Ui-dong won by distancing themselves from figures like Yoon Suk-yeol, Jang Dong-hyuk, and Hwang Kyo-ahn, and aligning with "sober-minded" citizens.

“

The reconstruction of the People Power Party must start by defining those who have infiltrated the party as election conspiracy theorists and Democratic Party operatives, and expelling them.

The commentary comes amid discussions about election integrity and internal party dynamics within the conservative camp.

“

The party constitution stipulates that defending the spirit of the constitution is a party member's duty, but the Jang Dong-hyuk group are not only forces denying the constitution and facts, but also, in accordance with the nature of the far-right, which can be close to the extreme left, they have also served the Democratic Party.
