Gender Reversal Politics

27. Party authority

Party representative, floor representative, 5 top members, secretary general, policy committee chair, etc.

Two more days have passed since the main officials leading the Peace Party resigned en masse.

Of course, no one praised me for quickly resigning.

『How long will the Manacoin Gate attacked by the ruling party, the ‘Plant Assembly’ last?』

『Park Ha-sun, suspected of helping Ye-sol Kwon attract investment when he was the party representative… The truth must be revealed through a thorough investigation.”

The headlines of the articles published in the past two days are usually like this. Interestingly, among the reporters who wrote this, there were quite a few kids who sucked Kwon Ye-sol.

At least they are at a good level, and there were some suspicious media outlets.

One of the major newspapers posted an editorial saying, “You shouldn’t make unfair victims with chimsobong.”

Please don’t raise suspicion, I thought I could understand it with the intention of ending it at this point.

I was curious about who was trying to close the gate that hadn’t even been opened yet, so I checked and found the editorial director of the media company who had been entertained by Kwon Ye-sol. Photos taken at the golf course are circulating openly, and it was amazing that she could write such an article.

And the reaction of the voters was colder than the article.

[It’s a good news for a clean resignation. I hope everyone will be painfully broken and searched for.]

[Do you think something like that will hit the Pyeonghwa Party? It’s a daily routine for them anyway, so the media will be bored and the approval rating will be solid.]

[What is the reason for the explosion after the general election? It can be seen that it was all agreed upon behind the scenes and made public. The ruling and opposition parties are all the same b*tches, and when there is no camera, they caress each other and are scumbags who only increase Sevi.]

[When did Kwon Ye Solade do it?]

[Six card loans alone. I’m living because I can’t die. Her husband is sick. Anyone please help.]

Public opinion is like this, but there was no way that the approval rating was normal. After all, politics is about looking at approval ratings.

“Me, Congressman? The approval rating has fallen more severely than expected.”

Aide Shin A-ram collected and showed several public opinion polls. Just by looking at her troubled expression, she could tell that she was in trouble.

“… Her. 20 Percent of the party approval rating.”

“There is also one poll with 31 percent, but the methodology is a bit strange.”

“It could have been requested by someone in our party. There are a lot of companies that give you money anyway, and they give you the numbers you want.”

Looking at it calmly, the approval rating of the Peace Party is around 19 to 20 percent.

You may ask how the party can support 20 percent when it is such a mess, but that was the original opinion poll.

For example, even if there were articles about the incumbent president openly making comments about dogs and pigs and members of the Peace Party holding an orgy, about 10 percent would have appeared. No matter what issues arise, there is always a support layer that goes over indifferently.

“Shouldn’t we see that now is the bottom? Isn’t it difficult to fall below 20 percent when considering the political terrain?”

“Don’t be so sure it’s the bottom.”

There was no guarantee that the bottom of the Peace Party was now.

Of course, there was no such thing as the Pyeonghwa Party’s approval rating falling like Manacoin. However, there was a high possibility that they would not be able to get out of the dark ages for a long time.

‘To avoid that, today is the most important thing.’

I didn’t say it was important for nothing.

Shortly thereafter, the election for the floor leader of the Peace Party was scheduled to be held at the main building of the National Assembly.

It wasn’t just about electing floor leaders. Because the floor leader to be elected this time should also serve as the chairman of the emergency room.

Representative of the floor and chairman of the emergency committee.

In effect, it meant that all power was concentrated in one person.

Although formally going through the primary, Na Hye-ri was planning to wear a gamtu in the end. It’s because the Park Ha-sun system collapsed for that in the first place.

Na Hye-ri’s closest aide, I’m sure she likes it, but… No laughter came out.

It was because he knew how difficult it was to be the head of a devastated household.

“Me, Congressman Lee Soo-ho. Aren’t you going to take a duty in the next leadership?”

“If you put your mind to it, you can get a seat.”

“Actually, there were rumors about this and that in the aide’s chat room. If Na Hye-ri becomes the head of the Brigade Committee and the floor leader, she says that Rep. Lee Soo-ho will take on major party positions such as chief of staff and the Brigade Committee.”

“… ….”

“I could not have imagined this until recently, but it is amazing.”

In fact, it wasn’t difficult for me to be on duty if I wanted to. It wouldn’t be bad to live as a spokesperson or chief secretary and assist Na Hye-ri.

However, there was another way for me to contribute to the Na Hye-ri system.

“Aide Shin A-ram. I’m sorry, but I have other things to do. A full-time duty job is difficult.”

“If it’s something to do… You mean catching Kwon Ye-sol.”

“I have announced something, but I have to keep my promise. How will people see me if I succeed in the world and focus on my duties?”

“That’s right…. Actually, I didn’t tell you, but there are quite a few people who call the office and urge it. There are a lot of people who just cry, but there were quite a few people who asked in a really serious way while introducing their resumes.”

“We have to live up to those expectations.”

In the first place, Kwon Ye-sol’s stake in the Pyeonghwa Party was absolute.

Even at this moment, the curiosity about Kwon Ye-sol’s whereabouts was growing.

It wasn’t simply because he was diving, it was because a piece of information about that person had been released.

“Mr. As you may know, the results of the US Securities and Exchange Commission investigation have been made public.”

“I know. It is said that there was a testimony that Ye-Sol Kwon was carrying a large amount of her Bitcoin or Ether. They said they had already cashed in some of them.”

A person involved in the case testified that Ye-Sol Kwon, who took a dive, had hundreds of billions of virtual assets stored in her cold wallet.

Just looking at the situation, it was right for me to focus on Kwon Ye-sol. Na Hye-ri should be the main one to take care of the Pyeonghwa Party.

However, it wasn’t that I didn’t have something to do for the disorganized party. Although it is not possible to help on a daily basis by holding a major party position, it was possible to help Na Hye-ri to easily take control of the party after seizing power.

‘Yes. Between us, that should be enough.’

After reflecting on my resolve, I headed to the contest venue.

*

The place where the election for the floor leader is held is the 4th conference hall of the main building of the National Assembly.

155 Out of 156 incumbent lawmakers gathered.

Only former CEO Park Ha-sun was absent. The aunt was so directly tied to her mana coin gate that she was even going to leave the party soon. You must be busy doing other things somewhere by now.

Missing Park Ha-sun did not improve the atmosphere at all. Even with an important primary ahead, the conference hall was open.

“… Phew. Kwon Ye-sol What the hell is this like because of that b*tch? Are you saying you can’t carry your face in the district because you’re embarrassed?”

“Why are you jointly responsible?”

“Did you hear Yang Moon-sook making excuses for former floor leader? She handed over two hundred sheets of Shin Saimdang in a yellow envelope at the post office, but she didn’t even check it and took it lightly? It’s not some kind of sickness, it’s… Oh, there you are. Sorry.”

“Did you just call me an idiot?”

Lawmakers openly babbling.

The agitation of first-timers, who accounted for more than half of active duty, was particularly serious. As soon as they came in with a gold badge, the National Assembly turned into a plant, so if the mentality is normal, that’s even weirder.

Even among the heavyweights who had to take care of them, the placenta was already contaminated with money envelopes and split donations. Only eight people have been given the real names, but there are probably many more.

It was a scene that only reminded me of how the family is going well.

Even the Liberal Party, the biggest opposition party these days, instead of openly attacking, said, “The operation of the National Assembly cannot be postponed until how long. I hope that the internal conflict of the Peace Party will be resolved quickly.” There are also children in the Liberal Party, so there may be a side of saree.

‘How can the majority of the ruling party collapse in such an absurd way?’

Na Hye-ri’s expression before the primary was also not bright. It is not very honorable to serve as the floor leader and the chairman of the Brigade Committee in such a party.

It was my duty to alleviate some of the expected difficulties.

Right before the election for the floor leader, I applied for a speech and briefly stepped forward.

Then several lawmakers looked at me with disapproval. You must think that I am the cause of all this. I didn’t care and just started licking my mouth.

“Respected seniors and fellow lawmakers. As you know, I contributed to uncovering suspicions of illegal political funds within the party along with Congressman Na Hye-ri…. It was also painful for me to publicize the dissatisfaction of comrades in the party. After all, it is to hurt a comrade.”

“But there was another fact that really bothered me. It is not possible to specify specifically, but it is because there have been reports that a very small number of lawmakers currently under suspicion may have been unjustly caught up in the situation.”

At this point, I paused and looked at the dignitaries with pity.

Of course, it was all acting. Shame on you. There may be a few congressmen who can end up with non-prosecution later, but that’s none of my business. The reason I say this is to torture them with hope.

‘They believe that the wronged person is themselves, probably.’

Although they were involved in the gate, they had no choice but to follow Na Hye-ri’s guidance without doing anything stupid. Of course, after Na Hye-ri completely takes over the party, she will have to deal with them one by one.

Now it was time to wrap up.

“If there is a lawmaker implicated without fault, it would be right for the party to come forward and protect it…. But, as you know, things are not going well. It is political suicide to invite the misunderstanding that the new leadership is taking care of the family while receiving criticism from voters.”

“For now, we have to put our hopes on the prosecution’s investigation. However, I would like to make one appeal to the new leadership. If there is even one lawmaker who has been unfairly harmed, I would like to ask for relief after the party is normalized.”

After his remarks, he deliberately pretended to hesitate for about 3 seconds, then bowed belatedly and returned to his seat. He even let out a short sigh. As if he feels some sense of responsibility for making things this far.

It was like deceiving members of the same party, but there was no guilt.

Now was not a time that was easy enough to win with honesty.
