● Severe Disciplinary Action Against 'Non-Leadership Faction' ~ Controversy Over Fairness of Disciplinary Measures

Jang Yun-mi / Former Spokesperson for the Democratic Party
"The People Power Party's Ethics Committee cannot escape criticism over a double standard."
"The grounds for disciplinary action fall under party-harming activities... but politically, it is excessive disciplinary action."
"Jang Dong-hyeok has political confidence... which has been granted to him by senior members of the People Power Party."

Kim Jong-hyuk / Former Supreme Council Member of the People Power Party
"Questions remain regarding the Ethics Committee's inherent legitimacy and selective disciplinary actions."
"The Ethics Committee disciplined only 'anti-Jang Dong-hyeok' figures... it is a purge of political rivals."
"Jang Dong-hyeok has already lost his authority... when authority is gone and only power remains, it is a dictatorship."
"The Election Commission's incompetence and the inaction of senior People Power Party members helped Jang Dong-hyeok."

Sohn Seok-min / SBS Editorial Writer
"The Ethics Committee's 'disciplinary action' seems to act as a factor amplifying anxiety within the Jang Dong-hyeok leadership system."
"Disciplinary action against members of the National Assembly requires the formation of a special ethics committee... expulsion procedures take time."
