Lee Jae-myung, chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea, who was sentenced to deprivation of his right to vote in the first trial for violating the Public Official Election Act, will attend a rally in downtown Seoul today as scheduled.

Representative Lee will attend and speak at the "3rd National Action Day for Condemning Kim Gun-hee's State Affairs Manipulation and Special Prosecutor's Office" hosted by the Democratic Party of Korea in front of Gwanghwamun, Seoul.

Prior to this, the Democratic Party of Korea will hold an emergency joint meeting attended by its lawmakers and regional chairmen across the country at the National Assembly, and discuss the party's response direction after Lee's first sentence.

When asked by reporters how to resolve the party's confusion, Lee said, "The party is not confused," after presiding over a closed Supreme Council meeting shortly after the first trial was sentenced yesterday.
