It was found on the 10th that the’Blue Rose Citizen Action’, a pro-munity-oriented civic group, is asking the ruling party lawmakers to’pass a bill to completely abolish the prosecution’s investigation rights’.
This group is a netizen organization formed around a progressive YouTuber, and after revealing the mobile phone contact information of the ruling party lawmakers in the YouTube video content, it also induces them to’sign the pledge through text messages and phone calls’.
The’Blue Rose Citizen’s Action’, which insists on reforming the prosecution, announced that until the 10th, a total of seven members, including Democrats Hwang Unha, Lee Soo-jin, Kim Yong-min, and Jang Kyung-tae, and members of the Democratic Party, Choi Kang-wook, Kim Jin-ae, and Kang Min-jung, joined the pledge.
Some lawmakers even published the pledge directly on their Facebook page.
The previous day, Rep. Hwang Unha posted a photo of the pledge with his signature stamped on Facebook. The pledge stated, “With the inauguration of the high-ranking public officials criminal investigation office, we want to fully realize the’complete abolition of the prosecution’s right to investigate the prosecution’s two major prosecution reform tasks of the Moon Jae-in administration’ within the term of President Moon Jae-in’s term.” “I will make it possible to be recorded in history as a president who has completed the two major tasks of prosecution reform.” “I solemnly pledge in front of the people that in the first half of 2021, we will make every effort, including exercising a sacred vote as a member of the National Assembly, to pass a bill for the’complete abolition of the prosecution’s right to investigate’ and put it into effect within the term of the Moon Jae-in administration.” Written.
Rep. Hwang emphasized that the group’s activities, which are receiving pledges, are “sponsored by civic groups to promote legislation to separate investigation and prosecution.”
Some respondents like Congressman Hwang who positively appreciate the organization’s activities, while others responded that the compulsory “write of the pledge” was difficult. “I am paralyzed by dozens of calls and swear words every day.”
One lawmaker who participated in the pledge said, “There were 40-50 text bombs a day at different numbers, and I was contacted to the extent that I was paralyzed.” “Seeing the contents, I made a pledge because there were no major errors related to the reform of the prosecution, but the entity of the group is unclear. That’s why I’m trying to find out later.” He added, “In this case, it is very difficult because I contact each member of the lawmaker frequently.”
