-It seems to be a strategy not only to unify the people and alleviate conflicts between the two parties, but also to embrace the middle class and show off their presence as the next presidential candidate.
However, it is of interest whether there was coordination with the Blue House in advance as much as possible only if the president made a direct decision to pardon prisoners. It is said that the Blue House side said, “It is a matter that can be discussed only when a suggestion is made.”
In the conservative opposition, positions are mixed.

When I met Lee on the 30th of last month and was offered a meeting with President Moon, there were also reactions that the proposal was unpleasant because there was no mention of it.
In a call with CBS Nocut News, a party official said, “I don’t know if the pardon suggestion is the personal opinion of CEO Nak-yeon Lee or the content coordinated with the Party or the Blue House,” he said. “There is no need to respond now.”

He pointed out, “Amnesty is important to the consensus of the whole country,” but he pointed out that “if there is an attempt to apply the amnesty to the election, it is unacceptable.”
On the other hand, the Republican Party, which leads the so-called’Taegeukgi rally’, is in a position that it is “late but welcome.”
Representative Cho Won-jin of the Republican Party said, “Confirm the fault of illegal impeachment, not a political show, as a solution to the public display and crisis escape, and release it immediately even now.”
