, “National Assembly Speaker Kim Jin-pyo announced that on the 28th, the National Assembly will convene a plenary session to vote on the bill appointing a special prosecutor for the investigation of the truth behind the suspicious death of a Marine and the cover-up of the case, which President Yoon Suk-yeol exercised his right to request a reconsideration (veto) the previous day.”,
,
, ‘Kim stated during an end-of-term press conference at the National Assembly on that day, “If possible, both ruling and opposition parties should agree on a schedule and convene a plenary session, but even if there is no agreement, we will hold a plenary session on the 28th.”‘,
,
, ‘He explained, “If the special prosecutor bill is agreed upon, it will be finalized according to the agreed upon terms; if not, we have no choice but to finalize it through a vote on the bill that has been requested for reconsideration. In light of the introduction of the fast-track system, the special prosecutor bill must be completed within the term of the 21st National Assembly according to parliamentary procedures.”‘,
,
, ‘The special prosecutor bill passed through the National Assembly in a plenary session on the 2nd with opposition parties alone, and the President exercised his right to request a reconsideration the following day. The main opposition People Power Party opposes the convening of the plenary session and the handling of the special prosecutor bill, officially deciding to oppose the bill.’,
,
, ‘Speaker Kim emphasized, “I have asked both ruling and opposition parties to start discussions again and make efforts to reach an agreement even if the right to request a reconsideration is exercised.” He stressed that “I have been continuously engaging in dialogue efforts with the floor leaders and party leaders until yesterday and even this morning.”‘,
