[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] Jo Dong-yeon, co-chair of the Democratic Party's joint election countermeasures committee, on the 2nd posted a message that seemed to suggest his intention to resign as co-chair, saying, "I do not want to blame or hold anyone responsible. I have sincerely been grateful and sorry."
On that day, Jo wrote on Facebook, "I also know well that no matter how much I struggle and shout, it is useless," expressing his feelings regarding the recent controversy surrounding his divorce.
He said, "No matter how hard I try, I am always either in the same place or moving backward. The time I lived diligently feels tarnished in an instant, and it feels like my entire life is disappearing," adding, "No matter how difficult it is, I have kept my balance, but this time, I truly do not know what to do."
Jo appealed, "However, I hope you stop making things difficult for my children and family. I will bear the burden, so please stop making things hard for my innocent family."
He concluded, "Even without that, these have already been sufficiently difficult times. I have sincerely been grateful and sorry. Goodbye."
