“I will pay you back to make sure you feel that the world has changed.” Immediately after being prosecuted, Rep. Choi Kang-wook vowed to retaliate. However, the court admitted that he had interfered with the entrance exam with a counterfeit intern certificate and sentenced him to two years in prison in August. Hopefully, it was a precious opportunity for him to “surely feel” that the world is not easy.
[진중권의 퍼스펙티브]
The battle to prevent the investigation of corruption in power was defeated, so the target turned to the judiciary.
A series of rulings destroyed the imagination of Democratic supporters built out of falsehood and fabrication.
One sacrifice makes the judiciary pure, the Democrats perfect, and the supporters happy.
How good is it, so that the National Assembly holds the Neolithic scapegoat offering
Invent a new enemy
In court, he pretended to be an occupation force. It was the first time I saw the accused, who said he had an appointment during the trial. Where is this person to be judged? He was sitting at the right hand of the president and came to judge the prosecution and court. “I cannot erase the impression that the prosecution has been deceived by the terms and facts unilaterally circulating in the court.”
Supreme Commissioner Hwang Hee-seok of the same party wrote that “in the allegation of abuse of public prosecution rights, the right of the suspects to be investigated is negligible.” However, the prosecution gave him a full guarantee of his “right to be investigated”. It was Choi Kang-wook himself who considered the right to be “slightly. He refused to summon the prosecution three times. It is a habitual violation of self-rights.
As expected, they embarked on the next reform. It is the so-called judicial reform. Their reform always needs an’enemy’. The enemy was quickly invented. “I realize that there are separate nobles dressed in law uniforms.” In place of prosecutors, judges have now been redefined as enemy forces resisting reform.
The method of reform is impeachment of judges. Sustained commission from the Open Democratic Party. “Now, the National Assembly, the power elected by the people, must hold the judicial farmers accountable and initiate judicial reform. The Open Democratic Party will impeach the judges with the desperate feeling that the foundations of democracy should be prevented from collapsing, and urge the Democrats to come together.”
Repertoire

Why did I suddenly pull out the impeachment card? The direct trigger is Choi Kang-wook’s ruling, but the real background is the regime’s accumulated dissatisfaction with the judiciary’s ruling. They wanted to remind the judiciary that “the world has changed” when the courts convicted them of their violations and put a brake on their first law.
“The judiciary, given the opportunity to reform itself, can no longer be the subject of reform.” Repertoire of familiar repertoire. ‘Ctrl C’what he said to the prosecution and’Ctrl V’to the judiciary. They attacked the prosecutor general they had set up, and this time they criticized the Supreme Court chiefs they had set up. “The Supreme Court Chief Kim Myung-soo betrayed the judicial reform.” (Rep. Lee Tan-hee)
It is all to the prosecution, the auditor, the court, and the media. If there is no sound no matter how much the battery is replaced, the radio is broken. But these people will do battery reform. It is a surrealistic landscape. I seem to see a drunkard telling me that I need to reform the road administration because the asphalt jumped up and slapped me.
Having 180 seats, the impeachment decision will be made. It’s like going through another thing you’ve never experienced before. When I come to this regime, I often hear the word’first in the ideology of dedication’. Why? This is because the activism habits written on the bodies of those in charge of this regime constantly conflict with the country’s democratic system.
Impeachment that has lost its purpose
Already in November 2018, at the National Judge’s Delegation, the National Assembly urged the National Assembly to prosecute the impeachment of the judges of the Judicial Nongdan. However, the Democratic Party lawmakers, who had been handing down all the time, now come and grab the judges and turn them into redemption. Even Rep. Lee Soo-jin, who helped the judicial Nongdan powers to recirculate the lawmakers, shouts’impeach the judge’.
Impeachment for what? The purpose of the impeachment trial is to dismiss a public official who has committed an illegal act but has a guaranteed status and suspend his/her duties. However, the person who was the subject of impeachment is going to take off his clothes soon after the term expires anyway. So there is no real benefit of the judgment. In the end, it’s going to be a rage to stop one person from getting a lawyer.
Trump gives an example, saying that impeachment is also possible that has no real benefit. However, Trump is the president of a country and the instigator of the death-death Capitol Violence. So it has even a’symbolic’ meaning. On the other hand, the subject of this impeachment is a judge with an unfamiliar name. In addition, he did not intervene in the judgment of innocence, just rubbing the phrase.
He was acquitted in court and was only lightly disciplined in court. But, should I even impeach myself? Of course, impeachment is an administrative trial and has nothing to do with guilt. But just because it is theoretically possible doesn’t mean you have to do it. President Roh Moo-hyun was also impeached. But did the prosecution have to be done?
Offer a scapegoat for an exit strategy
The main decree of the judicial nongdan is a lawsuit for conscription. Some judges, such as Chief Justice Yang Seung-tae, deliberately delayed the trial and made a trick to complete the statute of limitations on claims. This is’Nongdan’ in its proper meaning, as it has intervened in accordance with the de facto judgment. However, the subject of this impeachment has nothing to do with it.
Nevertheless, he suddenly received a caretake and became a’symbol’ of the Judicial Nongdan. The word is’unconstitutional’, and there are various differences in its importance, from touching the phrase of the defamation judgment to Chun Doo-hwan’s military coup. It is not a spell, and it is not a leap from the word’unconstitutional’ mentioned in Bangron to impeachment.
It seems that there was not enough justification to put up a defamation lawsuit as a representative case of Jubeong Nongdan. President Lee Nak-yeon added a new political charge to it, saying that it was done to “constrain the demand for investigation into the Sewol ferry disaster.” However, the setting that Senior Judge Lim Seong-geun tried to interfere with the investigation of the Sewol ferry with it is extremely unrealistic.
Two years or so late, even one person was photographed and impeached. Having lost the battle to prevent the investigation of power corruption, he is trying to turn the target by turning the target to the judiciary. 180 seats arithmetically guarantee the victory of the fight. Judge Lim was chosen as a victim of the exit strategy.
Judicial Nongdan is a mirror, and their insides are different. They also do not deny that this impeachment is part of so-called’judicial reform’. Let’s listen to the words of the protagonist of impeachment. “In the past, even if it felt like a wrong decision, there were no 400,000 signatures. I would like to see when judicial mistrust began to accumulate.” (Rep. Lee Tan-hee)
People’s judgment in the digital age
That ‘400,000’ is the number of those who signed the petition for impeachment of the court judges. If there is a problem with the ruling, it should be criticized based on the facts and the law. That’s impossible, so I’m just quoting the headlines of the angry’Daegaemun’. A former judge seeks’justice’ in a digital people’s trial. All this absurdity actually comes from here.
In the meantime, a series of court rulings relentlessly destroyed the imagination of Democratic supporters built out of falsehood and fabrication. 400,000 angry voices reflect the frustrations of those who have been demolished in the fictional world. To keep them held, we need something to soothe their collapse and anger. That’something’ is the impeachment of the judge.
It only prevents one person from getting a job, but the’political’ utility of impeachment that lost this purpose is great. Because with this little victory, they can keep in the minds of their supporters the false sense that they are the saviors of this rotten nation. That’s why I wanted to eat the impeachment can, which I had left for two years, just before the expiration of the preservation period.
We didn’t elect
The person who took all the responsibilities of Judicial Nongdan was on the back. He will replace the prosecution’s reforms and the responsibility of all mistakes made by the Democratic Party. With just one sacrifice, the judiciary is pure, the Democrats are innocent, and the supporters are happy. How good it is. That is why the National Assembly is holding a Neolithic scapegoat offering.
His’elected power’ taryeong is still there. “The National Assembly must now really properly check the judiciary, which is a power that has not been elected.” (Representative Lee Soo-jin) He said he would impeach the judge who testified against me in court. At this time, I had to say a word about the’elected power’ taryeong as one of the people.
Honestly, I didn’t pick you because I liked it. We didn’t have a choice. This country’s election version is a game where you are forced to choose between feces (worst) and urine (lowest) anyway. It’s a game where you expect to urinate, pick it up, and check the stool in the box every time. I hope the’elected’ spokespersons will not forget this fact.
