On the 8th, Ho-Young Joo, the representative of the People’s Power, will launch a one-person protest in front of the Supreme Court, urging the resignation of Chief Justice Kim Myung-soo. Members of the People’s Strength are planning to put the issue of Supreme Court Chairman Kim’s move on the controversy over the’violation of political neutrality’ to the public’s table after a one-man demonstration until the Lunar New Year holiday. It seems that it is a strategy to hit the neutrality of the judiciary through public opinion rather than a proposal for impeachment proceedings, which is practically impossible and politically unclear.

Joo Ho-young “Appointed Kim Myung-soo, who is outside the 40th place in the rank of judge”
“If you pay back the blessings, it will be a disaster to the people.” One-person protest begins.

“Tomorrow morning, I will hold a one-man protest in front of the Supreme Court. If all these suspicions are not true, please answer no.”

Chief Justice Joo said, “President Kim Myung-soo is now facing a terrible “break of trust”. As soon as he became the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, he threw about 100 judges into the trial to clear the redemption, and the junior resignation, who lost 30 kilos due to illness. He pointed out that he was rejected because he noticed the government.

“If Chief Justice Kim Myung-soo has the intention of repaying the favor of the President who appointed him as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, who is outside the 40th rank of the judge without any experience as a Supreme Court Justice, it is a disaster for the people.” “I ask Chief Justice Kim Myung-soo. Are you planning to show how the rule of law and constitutional order of the Republic of Korea are destroyed by the Supreme Court Chief Justice?”

Members of the People’s Strength are expected to launch a one-man relay protest in front of the Supreme Court, starting with the main house representative, calling for the resignation of Chief Justice. An official from the power of the people said, “We will continue a one-man protest in front of the Supreme Court until the Lunar New Year holiday.” “The goal is to raise the controversy of the Supreme Court’s undermining judicial independence on the table.”

Kim Jong-in, chairman of the Emergency Response Committee, also held an emergency press conference on the 5th and said, “The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court said, “It is the least way to make atonement for the injured people by making a decision on your own.” On the 6th, the broadcaster said, “The so-called judiciary is an institution that protects democracy. Itself collapsed. I have a feeling of skepticism about whether the judiciary is the agency that makes the most righteous judgment,” he said to Supreme Court Chief Kim Myung-soo, saying, “If you have a conscience, you should resign.”

野, political burden increases even with new Supreme Court chief
The’impeachment prosecution’ abolished and’public opinion war’ with one-person protest

The main thing to note is that the people are hesitant to propose a’impeachment prosecution’ that will push the resignation while the people’s strength is in a single-person protest. From the standpoint of Chief Justice Kim, it is a heavy burden just to propose an impeachment prosecution with more than 100 members of the opposition party agreed. Even if the ruling party (174 seats) cannot vote against it, other issues may arise at the meeting of the Legislative Judicial Council before the impeachment proceedings are brought to the plenary session. However, the people’s strength chose to prioritize public opinion war through a one-person protest instead of an impeachment prosecution initiative.

This is because opinions are divided on whether it is appropriate to propose an impeachment proposal by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, whose term of office is guaranteed. Most of all, even after resignation or impeachment, even if the new Chief Justice comes, it is said that it is a problem. The constitution stipulates that the term of office of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is 6 years. If the Moon Jae-in administration appoints a new Supreme Court chief again, the new government will not be able to appoint the Supreme Court even if the power of the people changes the government next year. In addition, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court has the right to nominate the Constitutional Judge (three) and the Central Election Commissioner (three), so that not only local elections but also the next general election can be affected. For this reason, it is an analysis that the power of the people is focused on giving moral damage rather than actual resignation. An official from the power of the people said, “If the power of the people initiates the impeachment bill, it may be criticized for harming the separation of powers.”

Democratic Party “I apologize, I need to clean up now”

In the midst of this, the Democratic Party defended the offensive of the people’s power towards Chief Justice Kim and began to evolve against the situation. The false clarification of Supreme Court Chief Kim revealed through transcripts is a problem, but it is a political offensive to ask the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court to resign. Democratic Party spokesman Heo Young said, “As Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, I even apologized to the people embarrassingly,” and stressed, “It is time to organize.” An official from the Democratic Party said, “I did not violate the law and even apologized, but I should not shake the judiciary.”
