, “(Seoul=Yonhap News) Reporter Ahn Chae-won = Allegations that Kim Yeong-seon, a former member of the 22nd National Assembly from the People Power Party, discussed the proportional representation candidate selection with the People’s Reform Party in return for revealing the ‘Kim Geon-hee lady’s involvement in the candidate selection’ were raised through media reports on the 19th.”,
,
, ‘ On this day, an internet media outlet reported that former Rep. Kim met with Rep. Lee Jun-seok, who was the leader of the People’s Reform Party before the general election on February 29 at Chilbulsan in Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, and that the discussion of Kim’s entry into the People’s Reform Party and proportional representation candidacy took place.’,
,
, ” The media outlet reported that former Rep. Kim demanded the People’s Reform Party to provide ‘proportional representation 1st’ in exchange for providing the Telegram message from Kim lady containing the ‘candidate selection intervention’ suspicion, but the lawmaker refused. “,
,
, ‘ The report also mentioned that, afterwards, another person related to the People\’s Reform Party discussed with former Rep. Kim and agreed to give her the People\’s Reform Party proportional representation candidate number 3 instead of holding a press conference for disclosure directly, but at the time, the party’s Kim Jong-in, the head of the candidate management committee, and Lee, the representative, did not accept it.’,
,
, ‘ In connection with this, the lawmaker posted on Facebook, saying, “The report ‘Offered Proportional Representation No. 1 by former Rep. Kim in relation to the disclosure of the suspicion of intervention in the candidate selection’ is not true at all,” and added, “That was the expectation and demand of former Rep. Kim, and there was no reason for the People\’s Reform Party to ‘offer’ it.”‘,
,
, ‘ The lawmaker stated, “At that time, the disclosure content of former Rep. Kim had a lack of completeness, and everyone in the organization was negative about former Rep. Kim\’s entry into the People\’s Reform Party, so it was rejected.”‘,
,
, ‘ The lawmaker added, “Former Rep. Kim once demanded the chairman of the candidate management committee repeatedly to make it happen, causing a lot of inconvenience to the chairman and his family.”‘,
,
, ‘ Former Chairman of the candidate management committee, Kim Jong-in, also said on CBS radio that he had never heard of former Rep. Kim and the lawmaker meeting at Chilbulsan, but former Rep. Kim mentioned to him, “I heard the story of asking for Proportional Representation No. 1 and 3 (from me) at first.”‘,
,
, ‘ He also added, “I didn’t respond at all to that, so (the former Rep. Kim) gave up on me.”‘,
,
, ‘ The report stated that a person named Myeong Taegyun, who is active in a local political scene, acquired information related to the People\’s Power Party candidate selection based on his friendship with President Yoon Suk-yeol and also intervened in issues such as former Rep. Kim\’s constituency change and discussion of the People\’s Reform Party proportional representation candidate selection.’,
,
, ‘ Myeong stated on Facebook, “Writing this article with a conspiratorial aim to raise groundless political suspicions about the first lady, I will submit a civil and criminal complaint for spreading false information.”‘,
,
, ‘ Meanwhile, Shin Ji-ho, former head of the strategy planning department of the People Power Party, mentioned in a radio interview regarding suspicions that Kim lady sent a Telegram message to former Rep. Kim to move to a new constituency and interfere in candidate selection, “In the case of Rep. Kim Yeong-seon, they say he was in the bottom 10% in the evaluation of incumbent lawmakers at the time of the candidacy. He was automatically a cutoff target” and said, “Being in the bottom 10% was a cutoff target regardless of moving constituencies, and he was actually cut off.”‘,
,
, ‘ Former Rep. Kim applied for candidacy in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do, but declared on February 18 that he would move to Kimhae-gap, and was eventually excluded (cut off) from the selection on March 2.’,
