Assemblywoman Yong Hye-in's Remarks: Widening Political Repercussions

Lee Jae-myung has faced political backlash since proposing the Yongin card. In this process, personnel mismanagement has become prominent, leading to increasing criticism. Kwon Ye-young criticized Lee Jae-myung's personnel appointments, saying, "If you look at Lee Jae-myung now, his personnel appointments are completely messed up." There was confusion during the appointment process of former Minister for Government Policy Coordination Koo Yoon-cheol, and when Democratic Party of Korea lawmaker Ahn Gyu-baek was mentioned as a candidate for Minister of National Defense, controversy arose over his military service records, among other personnel issues.

There are criticisms that Lee Jae-myung has not found a political breakthrough and is currently lost. Critics refer to him as a 'political stray' and point out his lack of leadership. Kwon Ye-young commented, "Looking at Yong Hye-in, we realize, 'Oh, Lee Jae-myung has lost his way. He's preoccupied with the lame duck period.'" Some even jokingly suggest that Lee should go to court to resolve his legal issues.

Public trust is declining as government policies are frequently withdrawn. Kwon Ye-young criticized, "It's not just one or two things; all the laws and policies of the Lee Jae-myung government are proposed and then withdrawn, proposed and then withdrawn." She cited various policies that were pursued and then withdrawn, such as ISA, sugar tax, and health insurance coverage for hair loss prevention. The reversal of the tax benefits policy for jointly owned couple's property is also a target of criticism. Amid such policy confusion, a policy chief even resigned and was banned from leaving the country, raising concerns about government operations.
