Shin Dong-wook, a supreme council member of the People Power Party, on the 17th proposed an open review at the supreme council level of the so-called party members' bulletin board (party board) incident after Han Dong-hoon, former leader of the People Power Party, was expelled by the ethics committee over the incident.

Shin wrote on Facebook that "the controversy has gone on too long," and stated accordingly.

Regarding Jang Dong-hyeok saying he would defer finalizing the disciplinary action against the former leader during the period for filing an appeal, Shin said, "We granted the former leader an opportunity for a retrial, but the former leader is not responding," and added, "If a vote (to expel) proceeds as is, the turmoil will grow."

He said, "So as a last solution, I propose an open review with the participation of all elected supreme council members," and stated, "If even this falls through, the facts of the matter will inevitably have to be established in the realm of investigation."

He added, "Objective and thorough verification is essential so as not to leave lingering resentment," and emphasized, "For this, there should also be consent from the former leader Han and family members for the use of personal information."
