Internal opposition is emerging within the ruling party as Yong Hye-in, the nominee for Minister of Gender Equality and Family, insists on retaining her seat in the National Assembly. Several lawmakers have stated that it is appropriate for a minister to resign from their position as a member of the National Assembly, and the People Power Party criticized the nominee for receiving government subsidies with taxpayer money. Meanwhile, the opposition is continuing its offensive against Kim Seung-won, the nominee for Minister of Justice, and Kim Yong-beom, former Chief of Staff of the Presidential Policy Office. They are particularly launching fierce attacks on Nominee Yong, raising allegations such as requests to approve clinical trials for COVID-19 treatments.
