Lee Seung-hwan has publicly supported the Moon Jae-in government through social network services (SNS). The Park Geun-hye administration actively participated in the candlelight vigils against the government-owned Nongdan.
For example, on May 9, 2017, Lee Seung-hwan shared an MBC news video that announced President Moon’s’power of election’ through his Facebook page and said, “Hey! I saw MBC on purpose. It was natural, Mr. MB.” In August of last year, a poster was released to support him, citing President Moon’s remarks regarding Japan’s export restrictions.

Lee Seung-hwan continued to voice calls for the establishment of airlift and reform of the prosecution. At the ’12th Airlift Station Installation, Prosecution Reform Yeouido Candlelight Festival’ held at Yeouido Square in Seoul in November last year, “Prosecutors are now the target of fear beyond disbelief.” “Reigning over the people, they regarded the people as insignificant and potential criminals. I feel like I’m seeing it,” he said.
Right after attending the candlelight festival at the time, Lee Seung-hwan told Facebook, “The sound we make is different, right? #Candlelight Assembly #Prosecutors Reform #Prosecutors’ Image Renewal Request.” Lee Seung-Hwan, who was preparing for the performance, said in October last year, a month ago, “Although these days I face difficulties in my life, I turn away from pretending not to know your call. I couldn’t do it.” He encouraged participation in the candlelight festival at the time and shared a promotional poster.
