The Democratic leadership didn’t attend the funeral, is there any other reason?
[기자]
Democratic Party Chairman Song Young-gil, who served as an advisor to the funeral committee, explained the reason for not attending, saying that he had a planned visit to Jeonbuk before the funeral was decided.
Most of the Democratic leadership, who were named on the funeral committee, did not attend the funeral.
Democratic presidential candidate Lee Jae-myung also said he would not attend, saying he thought he had done everything he could do as a condolences.
Previously, it seems that the Democratic Party’s Gwangju lawmakers opposed the deceased’s honor as the national head of the country, and also took into account some negative public opinion.
On the other hand, in Power of the People, CEO Jun-seok Lee attended the funeral.
Earlier, CEO Lee also conveyed to the bereaved family that he would cooperate with the funeral process when mourning the deceased.
I know that there are many people who say that they cannot cover the death of the deceased, but unlike the Chun Doo-hwan family, they evaluated that they had made sincere efforts, such as paying fines and apologies.
