,
, ‘Jeon Ju-hye, a member of the emergency committee of the People Power Party, said in a meeting of the emergency committee held at the National Assembly earlier in the day, “Looking back at the 21st National Assembly, there were numerous examples of legislative dictatorship and violation of legislation, which were always centered around the Democratic Party’s National Assembly Speaker,” and said, “In the 22nd National Assembly, cooperation, respect, and coexistence should be restored, and for this, a National Assembly Speaker who maintains political neutrality must be elected.”‘,

, ‘The Democratic Party is scheduled to hold a general meeting for elected members to select candidates for the National Assembly Speaker and Deputy Speaker. The candidates for the National Assembly Speaker are the elected members Choo Mi-ae and Woo Won-shik.’,
,
, ‘In connection with this, a member stated, “Regardless of which of the two becomes the candidate, the first resolution should be that the National Assembly Speaker should not be for the Democratic Party, but for the people,” and added, “We hope that the 22nd National Assembly will be a legislative body that earns trust from the people, coexisting cooperation and co-prosperity.”‘,
,
, ‘Seong Il-jong, Secretary-General of the People Power Party, criticized, saying, “The people were not involved in the process of selecting the Democratic Party’s Speaker candidate, only Lee Jae-myung (Democratic Party leader) was present,” and added, “The candidates Choo Mi-ae and Woo Won-shik who are running for Speaker are engaged in a competition of ‘mind’ (Lee Jae-myung’s intention) and deceive the people by saying that mind is the people’s will.”‘,
,
, ‘Secretary-General Seong said, “The National Assembly Speaker, as the second-ranking official in the country, has been commanded neutrality by the people. This is a stern demand of the people to uphold democracy and open cooperation,” and argued, “Whoever becomes the Speaker, neutrality is jeopardized, and it becomes Lee Jae-myung’s National Assembly, not the people’s National Assembly.”‘,
,
, ‘He continued, saying, “The people have no place with Lee Jae-myung, only needing bodyguards to prevent his judicial risks and pave the expressway to the presidency,” and pointed out, “A disgraceful page is being written in our democratic history.”‘,
,
, ‘Um Tae-young, a member of the emergency committee of the People Power Party, also expressed concern, saying, “It is very worrisome to see them competing with each other by invoking names, and I will speak further after the National Assembly Speaker candidate is decided.”‘,
