Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, was discharged from Seoul National University Hospital in Jongno-gu, Seoul at 11 am on the 10th. It has been 8 days since he was attacked in Busan on the 2nd. Representative Lee plans to continue treatment at his home for the time being.
Representative Lee delivered a verbal message directly upon his discharge. Representative Lee said, “I am sorry and grateful for causing concern to our citizens,” and added, “Our people saved our lives, so I will live the rest of my life solely for the sake of my people.”
At the same time, Representative Lee said, “I sincerely hope that this incident, which surprised everyone, will be a milestone in ending the politics of political confrontation of hatred and restoring proper politics of mutual respect and coexistence,” adding, “This war-like politics that requires killing and eliminating the opponent.” “I hope that it will end now and that proper politics will be restored where we respect, acknowledge and compromise with each other,” he said.
Representative Lee also said, “I would like to express my special gratitude to the Busan fire department and police and the medical staff at Pusan National University Hospital who saved my life with appropriate and prompt emergency measures in that critical situation where life and death were the difference.” He added, “Seoul National University Hospital did their best from surgery to treatment.” “I would also like to thank the medical staff.”
Representative Lee continued, “Now, I hope that this war-like politics of hating and killing one another will disappear with this incident,” adding, “If we can restore politics of respect and coexistence and go together to a country with hope, then what is the big deal if my remaining life is lost?” “Wouldn’t it be a waste?” he said.
Meanwhile, about 50 YouTubers and supporters gathered at Seoul National University Hospital on this day. They also chanted, “CEO Jae-myung Lee is resurrected” and “Please recover a little more.” When Representative Lee appeared in the morning, supporters wearing blue scarves cheered and repeatedly chanted “Lee Jae-myung.” Representative Lee smiled slightly and lowered his head. Supporters shouted at Representative Lee, “Thank you for being alive,” “I love you,” and “Representative, stay strong.” One supporter wearing a blue hat raised his voice and shouted, “I love you, Representative,” before wiping away tears with both hands.
Earlier, on the morning of the 2nd, while visiting the site of Gadeokdo New Airport in Gangseo-gu, Busan, CEO Lee was attacked with a weapon by Mr. Kim (67), wearing a crown saying ‘I am Lee Jae-myeong’. Afterwards, CEO Lee received emergency treatment at Pusan National University Hospital and was transferred to Seoul National University Hospital. He was transported and received recovery treatment.
