● Controversy Over Chief Justice's "Written Motion"

Kim Jun-il / Current Affairs Critic
"Impeachment of the Chief Justice likely to be dismissed by the Constitutional Court... A 'written motion' is difficult to view as grounds for impeachment."
"The Chief Justice delayed the motion for five months... leaves room to be seen as a political act."

Yoon Hee-seok / Former Senior Spokesperson for the People Power Party
"The Chief Justice shows no intention of resigning... demonstrates his resolve through the 'written motion'."
"The Chief Justice seems likely to hold out further to publicize the infringement on the judiciary's rights."

Sohn Seok-min / SBS Editorial Writer
"Impeachment prosecution of the Chief Justice is realistically possible... controversies over judicial independence will grow during the impeachment process."
