People Power Party Naehong, ignited by the theory of ‘pizza with bugs in it’, a ball fired by Rep. Lee Jin-sook
Written on: June 17, 2026 | Column by current affairs critic specializing in IT/media
The clock in the political world is ticking urgently, pointing to changes in the landscape after the June 3 local elections. As the conflict within the party over the interpretation of the election results reached its peak, a strong analogy made by Rep. Jin-sook Lee, who recently entered the National Assembly, in an interview with YTN quickly emerged as a political topic. Going beyond simply defending the theory of responsibility for defeat, it raises fundamental doubts about the overall election management system and clearly reveals the gap between the mainstream and non-mainstream factions within the party. There is a need to coolly analyze what kind of variable this debate will be in the future of the People Power Party and what the reality of the ‘invasion of democracy’ claimed by Rep. Jin-sook Lee is.
Rep. Lee Jin-sook dismissed calls for Representative Jang Dong-hyuk to resign and maintained a firm stance that this election could never be defined as a defeat or a crushing defeat. Rep. Lee evaluated that the ruling party's report card was the result of sufficient political performance in the difficult political environment of the current administration's first year in power. In particular, despite personal disappointment, such as being excluded from Representative Jang during the nomination process, he emphasized the importance of making a cool and objective evaluation for the future of the party. Rather, he refuted the theory of responsibility for the defeat raised by some as a contradictory logic that conflicts with the recent trend of the People Power Party's approval rating leading the Democratic Party, and pointed out that criticism directed at the party leadership has lost its legitimacy.
Representative Lee raised his voice in strong criticism of the shortage of ballots and computer errors that occurred in this election, comparing it to ‘pizza with bugs in it.’ Just as you cannot trust consumers by replacing a single slice of pizza when a bug appears in it, the logic is that this situation, which exposed a total lack of election management, cannot be resolved through re-elections in specific regions alone. He defined this phenomenon as an act of encroachment on suffrage that undermines the foundation of democracy beyond a simple administrative error. Rep. Lee's diagnosis is that the failure to properly reform past allegations of preferential treatment by the National Election Commission led to today's predicted disaster.
Meanwhile, regarding the party leadership structure, Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, presented an analysis that seemed to penetrate the complex calculations of the political world. Representative Lee Jun-seok predicted that if Representative Jang Dong-hyuk steps down, there is a high possibility that senior members of the party will push Rep. Lee Jin-sook as the next alternative, and evaluated that this anxiety is leading to the paradoxical result of maintaining the current leadership system. While he believes that Representative Jang will continue to hold on to his nominal authority like the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, he warned that his actions calling for a full re-election based on allegations of election fraud could become a variable that increases strife within the party. Representative Lee's sharp assessment is that this is ultimately an irresponsible strategy aimed at political effect.
Rep. Jin-sook Lee also clearly revealed her aspirations and beliefs about politics after entering the National Assembly. He explained that he never once started a fight when people called him a fighter, and that he only responded defensively. He announced the abolition of the Yellow Envelope Act and the revision of the election law focusing on vested interests with the first bill in the future, and showed his will to correct the playing field that was structured to benefit incumbent lawmakers. Although he expressed his intention to focus on substantive system improvement rather than politics in the activities of the standing committee within the National Assembly, it still remains unclear what kind of impact the election disbelief he raised will have in the confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties.
■ Conclusion and analysis outlook
As a result, the appearance of Representative Lee Jin-sook is causing a new wave within the People Power Party. His actions, which include defending the representative Jang Dong-hyuk system while sharply criticizing the overall election system, are expected to have a significant impact not only on the power landscape within the party but also on future relations between the ruling and opposition parties. The strong analogy of ‘pizza with bugs’ went beyond simple rhetoric and became a keyword symbolizing the conservative camp’s distrust of election fairness and will to reform. Going forward, the People Power Party's future task will be how Rep. Lee can translate his claims into policies in the large forum of the National Assembly, and whether he can resolve divisions within the party and show unifying leadership.
