Regarding reports that Han Dong-hoon, nominee for chairman of the People Power Emergency Response Committee, may nominate Lee Soo-jeong, a professor of criminal psychology at Kyonggi University, as a member of the emergency committee, Professor Lee announced on the 26th that he would decline, saying, “My district is not that easy.” Professor Lee is preparing to run for Suwonjeong, Gyeonggi Province, the constituency of Rep. Park Gwang-on of the Democratic Party of Korea.

Previously, on the 25th, MBC reported that Professor Lee decided to join the emergency committee to be formed by nominee Han Dong-hoon. In a phone call with MBC, Professor Lee is reported to have said, “I received a call last week. Instead of refusing the offer, I replied, ‘I will do as I am told.’”

However, in a phone interview with SBS Radio’s ‘Kim Tae-hyun’s Politics Show’ on the morning of the 26th, Professor Lee said, “There was no official proposal (from nominee Han Dong-hoon). “I wonder if there was any official proposal from the person who will be appointed as emergency chairperson today,” he said. “The stories came out at the level of well-wishes through various SNS (social media), and since they were unofficial stories, it is difficult to say that ‘I received a proposal.’” He said. He said, “I decided last night that even if it were proposed, I should not think about it (as an emergency committee member).”

Professor Lee said, “As I said, my constituency is a difficult area, and it is not an easy area.” He added, “(As an emergency committee member) going back and forth to Yeouido and holding elections would actually mean emptying this (district). “Then it would be no different from the current Democratic Party members not taking care of the region,” he said. At the same time, he said, “I decided to ‘run my election hard with the voters in this district’ ​​and ‘I will work hard to prevent my fighting spirit from being lost.’”

Professor Lee also said that it may be inappropriate for him, who is preparing to run for a constituency, to serve as a non-representative committee member. When the host pointed out, “During Park Geun-hye’s emergency committee in 2012, not all emergency committee members ran for general elections that year,” Professor Lee said, “That might be the fairest situation,” and added, “If fairness is lost, what is the point of the emergency committee?” I’m thinking. “I have already started playing as a player, so I don’t want to lose my skills by going there (non-captain),” he said.
