- National Judiciary Representatives Meeting adopting ‘impeachment sympathy’ ’53: 43’… “Need to review it [impeachment of judges by other judges] along with disciplinary action”
- Delivered to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Kim Myeoung-soo (김명수) in the morning of the 20th [of November]…heated pro and con debate on different views until the adoption
- Is the impeachment proceedings to push for the “Impeachment of Judges” at the National Assembly riding the rapid current [being discussed are in a rush]?
- There is also the concern that it may lead to the liquidation of the “jeokpae” [deep rooted evil–a term created by the Moon administration/ruling party to describe the political opponents/those on the right] in the judiciary branch or the spread of leftists in the judiciary.
- Journalist Jeong Kyu-jae (정규재), “I can only warn that they are politicizing the judiciary branch.”
