Lee Sang-ho's move away from Nosamo, leading to the establishment of the National Participation Movement and support for Chung Dong-young, shows a clear break with the pro-Roh Moo-hyun faction.
From this point, Lee Sang-ho began to shift his political allegiance to the Chung Dong-young faction. The interviewee explained the situation at the time, saying, "At that time, in a way, he branched off from the main signal. He switched sides to the Chung Dong-young faction."
It is known that Lee Sang-ho began to form a full-fledged confrontational stance against President Roh Moo-hyun from 2006.
Although Lee Sang-ho played a leading role during the impeachment crisis, his statements were personal, not made under the Nosamo name. The interviewee stated, "It's correct to say that we withdrew from Nosamo. Even during the impeachment, although he led it, he didn't do it in Nosamo's name."
From the early days of President Roh Moo-hyun's administration, there were movements among those who had made Roh president to consolidate their own political power. In this process, Lee Sang-ho's actions were closer to undermining President Roh Moo-hyun rather than protecting him. The interviewee explained, "From the early days of President Roh Moo-hyun's administration, within the group that made Roh president, moves to consolidate their own political power began to emerge, and in that context, they started to turn their backs on Roh Moo-hyun."
