Justice Party Candidates Accepting’No Nomination’ “No Justification, No Qualification”

4.7 Seoul-Busan Mayor Kwon Soo-jeong and Busan City Party Chairman Kim Young-jin, who had declared a run for the by-election of the mayor of Seoul and Busan, announced their resignation and non-run positions at a press conference on the morning of the 4th. This is a statement of position following the decision of’No Nomination’ in the 4.7 by-election by the National Committee on the 3rd.

City Councilman Kwon Soo-jeong said, “This election by the mayor of Seoul started with the mayoral vacancy caused by the sexual harassment of former Mayor Park Won-soon. I and the Justice Party argued that the Democratic Party, which provided the cause of the by-election, should not run the candidate as promised by the people. In the meantime, there was a sexual harassment incident by the Justice Party representative,” he said.

In other words, as he and the party previously demanded’no nomination’ from the Democratic Party, he had to show the same appearance in the sexual harassment case of former CEO Kim Jong-cheol.

He said in detail, “The Justice Party immediately decided on the position system and expulsion of the party’s representative, and made it clear that the dignity and survival of the victims is of the utmost importance. And in extending that responsibility, yesterday decided not to run for a candidate for the by-election.” As a member, I am resigning from the preliminary candidate today to join the party’s strict decision.”

However, he wanted to say, “We want to make a city that does not fail to respect women and poor people in everyday unrest, unstable workers and homeless people, the elderly at dusk and the presence of numerous invisibility, and respect them as equal human beings. In the era of climate crisis,” he said. I was about to tell you that there is a need for a mayor who cares and acts about Seoul and the Earth.”

He pledged, “Although I will withdraw from this by-election, I will continue to take on the other’Seoul’ that I wanted to make together more responsibly as a member of the Seoul City Council.”

Chairman Kim Young-jin also said, “The Busan Justice Party has consistently insisted that the by-election was due to the sexual misconduct of the former mayor of the Democratic Party (Ogeo-don), and the Democratic Party has been responsible for not running,” he said. In the case, the Justice Party lost both the justification and qualifications to run,” he said.

He said, “It is a shameless thing to run for the Democratic Party with such criticism. I can’t embarrass the members of the party,” he said.

Meanwhile, Won Nae Representative Kang Eun-mi, who was the chairman of the party’s emergency countermeasures, said, “It is a painful and painful decision, but the Justice Party decided to fulfill its political responsibilities through no nomination.” I will try harder.”

In addition, “The change and renewal of the Justice Party for a dignified community for everyone is now beginning,” he said. “Until the citizens say that it is enough to stop, until the disappointment of the Justice Party turns into trust and support again, without negligence. I will do all my responsibilities.”
