[서울=뉴스핌] Reporter Jihye-jin = As People Power Party lawmaker Ahn Cheol-soo and former leader Lee Jun-seok continue their war of words due to the ‘profanity controversy’ during the campaign to support the by-election for the head of Gangseo-gu in Seoul, Representative Ahn has started a signature campaign calling for Representative Lee to be expelled.
On the 15th, Rep. Ahn attached a link to a page petitioning for former representative Lee’s disciplinary action on Facebook, saying, “We request that Lee Jun-seok, a spoiled brat who is ruining the party through internal gunfights, be expelled on charges of distributing fake news and interfering with the Gangseo-gu mayor’s election.” “Please participate in the signature campaign,” he wrote.

Rep. Ahn said, “The biggest reason for the defeat in the Gangseo-gu mayor election is the decline in public trust in the party and the government. However, this decline in public trust is due to Lee Jun-seok, who has appeared on broadcasts and only criticized the party. “It is also true that this has contributed to the decline in public trust,” he pointed out.
He continued, “Ultimately, in the Gangseo-gu mayor election, Lee Jun-seok produced fake news about me and the spokesperson of the Democratic Party of Korea immediately received it and showed fantastic chemistry in spreading it.” He added, “The pampered actor in question, Lee Jun-seok, must be expelled and be reborn as a dignified political party and party member. “He appealed.
Rep. Ahn emphasized, “Participating in the signature campaign to expel Lee Jun-seok is the first step in participating in the party’s innovation,” and added, “We must make every effort to expand the party’s scope in order to have hope for next year’s general election.”
The two are engaged in a war of words every day over the controversy over Rep. Ahn’s profanity that arose during a campaign to support the Gangseo-gu mayor by-election.
Rep. Ahn announced his intention to file a complaint with the party’s ethics committee, claiming that former leader Lee’s act of broadcasting as if the controversy over his profanity was true was an act of misconduct. In response, former representative Lee shared Rep. Ahn’s Facebook post and sarcastically said, “I wrote a lot of nonsensical content and got sick of it.”
