, ‘(Seoul=News1) Reporter Lee Bi-seul = Ahn Cheol-soo, a member of the People Power Party, stated on the 27th regarding the controversy over Representative Han Dong-hoon’s party member bulletin board, “The only solution is for Representative Han to hold a press conference to disclose the facts discovered so far and provide explanations and actions accordingly.”‘
,
, ‘In an interview with KBS, Ahn said, “I think making statements like ‘there is no problem because it doesn’t violate the law’ is a very poor approach.”‘
,
, ‘Ahn noted, “Once discussions about the law start in politics, things tend to get worse. The public doesn’t just want leaders who obey the law, but rather those who uphold a higher standard of morality.”‘
,
, ‘He added, “If it was due to hacking, the right course would be to apologize for not preventing it and commit to creating measures to prevent hacking. If it involves someone Han knows well, he should scold them harshly and ensure it won’t happen again, along with offering an apology.”‘
,
, ‘Ahn concluded, “This could have been resolved quickly. As an IT expert, I know this isn’t overly complex. But it dragged on for too long, leading to an unfortunate situation where even a bulldozer can’t stop what could have been stopped with a shovel.”‘
