Ruling party leader: President Lee must change himself if he wants the ruling party to change

Jang Dong-hyuk, leader of the People's Power Party, responded critically to President Lee Jae-myung's recent statements emphasizing the ruling party's responsibility. While acknowledging the president's words as "perfectly correct," Jang immediately questioned Lee's own track record and accountability for past actions.

“

The problem is, for someone who knows so much, how have they acted up until now?

Jang Dong-hyuk challenged President Lee on his social media, asking if he had upheld any of his stated principles during his tenure. The president had previously cited German philosopher Max Weber's views on the essential qualities of a politician, including passion for the public good and infinite responsibility for one's actions.

“

In the midst of all those words, is there even one thing that he himself has kept?

"How can someone who has undermined the entire national judicial system for a year to avoid going to prison say such things?" Jang Dong-hyuk questioned. He further criticized Lee's handling of economic crises, including high exchange rates, inflation, and oil prices, as well as the real estate and job markets, labeling it as a failure to take "infinite responsibility."

It is not fitting for someone who has undermined the entire national judicial system for a year to avoid going to prison to say this.
