What are the political implications of the third reading of the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act?
On December 7, 2023, the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act was voted on again in the National Assembly, but was once again defeated. This time, the vote was 198 in favor and 102 against, and the bill was once again defeated. This is the third time in a row that a bill to investigate the stock price manipulation scandal involving Kim Gun-hee has been defeated. The defeat of the bill is not only significant in terms of its failure, but also in terms of the issue of accountability in Korean politics, the unity of the ruling party, and the strategic approach of the opposition.
1. The process and implications of rejections
The Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act, which was sent back to the National Assembly after President Yoon Seok-yul vetoed it, needed a two-thirds majority of lawmakers present to pass in this second reading. However, it ultimately failed to meet that requirement with only 198 votes, meaning there were at least six defections within the People's Power, which could be interpreted as a sign of discontent or backlash within the ruling party.
In particular, the allegations of Ms. Kim Gun-hee's stock price manipulation and related incidents have generated social controversy, which shows that a layer of political accountability has been formed.
2. decisions of the ruling party and the political environment
The decision to vote no was confirmed by a ‘no party line’ vote at the National Assembly of the People's Power. While ruling party lawmakers participated in the plenary vote, they walked out of the vote on the impeachment motion against President Yoon Seok-yul, effectively blocking any chance of passage. This shows the political resolve of the party.
Despite the cohesion shown within the ruling party, it's important to note that future political changes could potentially split the conservative faction.
3. Opposition roles and reactions
The Democratic Party of Korea and the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act, which was initiated by the Democratic Party of Korea, is also in line with the opposition's political scenario. It would have served as a strategy to target the ruling party's internal conflicts and strengthen anti-ruling party sentiment, and its defeat would still constitute a political point of attack for the Democratic Party. Even after the defeat, the opposition may consider future actions, which could result in a political confrontation.

4. conclusion
The rejection of the Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act is more than just the passage of a bill; it is an example of the complex stakes and political decision-making processes in South Korean politics. In a political climate that is likely to intensify in the coming years, the impact of these events on Korean society and efforts to restore public trust will become even more important.
We'll need to keep an eye on the political side of things as well, as both parties move forward and citizens react to them.
