00:00Right now, the Korean People's Party is in a frenzy, saying that the announcement of the emergency

00:08visit is a crime of rebellion.

00:13Is that really the case?

00:16Who are the forces in Korea that are throwing away the regime's paralysis and the chaos

00:24in the nation?

00:27For the past two and a half years, the Korean People's Party has not stopped the overthrow

00:34and the incitement to revolt in order to pull down the president elected by the people

00:42without acknowledging him.

00:45It has not submitted to the results of the presidential election.

00:49Why is the Korean People's Party in a frenzy of rebellion?

00:57There is only one reason.

01:00As the presidential election for the Korean People's Party is approaching, the Korean

01:07People's Party is trying to evade the president's rebellion and hold an early election.

01:14The Korean People's Party is trying to overthrow the national system, cover up its crimes,

01:21and take control of the nation.

01:24The Korean People's Party is trying to uphold the freedom of democracy and the constitutional

01:31order of the Republic of Korea in the face of the huge dictatorship of the ruling party

01:38and the regime.

01:41How can the president's decision to overthrow the regime, which was judged to be the only

01:50way, become a rebellion?

01:53The presidential election for the Korean People's Party is not a presidential election that is

02:02a presidential election.

02:03It is a rule of law that is not subject to judicial review, such as a constitutional event

02:08or a diplomatic event.

02:11I call on the Republic of Korea, which has been protected with blood and sweat, to become

02:19one in the path of protecting our freedom and democracy.

02:26I will fight with the people until the last moment.

02:32I apologize once again to the people who were surprised and anxious about this election.

02:43Please trust my passion for the people.
