Deobureo Citizen Party: "Candidate Heoyongseok of 'I am Room 2' Must Be Expelled"

Candidate Heo Yong-seok

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] The Together Citizens' Party stated that the Future United Party should expel candidate Heo Yong-seok, who said "I am Room 2."

Kim Hong-il, deputy spokesperson of the Citizens' Party, said in a commentary on the 10th, "If the Future United Party is truly concerned about the n-room case, they should make candidate Heo Yong-seok from Eunpyeong, who made a pun saying 'I am Room 2' regarding the n-room case, the second person to be expelled."

The Shin Min-ju Basic Income Party candidate running in Seoul Eunpyeong revealed on the same day, "Around 3:20 p.m. on the 9th, at Yeonsinnae Mulbit Park, candidate Heo, who is running in the same district, made a ridiculous remark with a smile, saying 'I am Room 2' to a campaigner holding a placard that read 'Not n-room but prison, we will punish all 260,000 people.'

Deputy spokesperson Kim criticized, "Looking at the foolish behavior the Future United Party is displaying regarding the n-room case, it reminds me of the proverb 'Old habits die hard.' The Future United Party has been shocking the public with a parade of abusive remarks day after day, and now they are even using the n-room case as a subject for wordplay or trying to exploit it politically."

He added, "If the Future United Party knows anything about the n-room case or has secured any tips, they should hand them over to the investigative authorities. If they keep stalling, they will eventually realize that the ones suffocating are themselves, playing with fire."
