The Republic of Korea is currently shrouded in darkness, attempting to obscure the truth and blind the eyes of the people.

The allegations surrounding Kim Hyun-ji, the Senior Secretary to the President for Civil Affairs, are already on everyone's lips, yet neither the President nor Kim Hyun-ji has uttered a word.

The longer the silence, the more it becomes an admission of guilt.

In Gwanghwamun, the people are shouting, and shouting again: "Reveal the truth!" "Do not hide it!"

Dozens of days have passed since those cries echoed, but what returned was not an explanation, but more silence.

Furthermore, the administration is attempting to silence the people under the guise of a "False and Manipulated Information Eradication Act." However, our citizens know.

It is not those who silence others, but those who conceal the truth, who should fear.

The people ask: Why are the career, academic background, and background check results of the Senior Secretary to the President for Civil Affairs being hidden? Public officials are people who work with taxpayer money. If the people ask, they must answer. That is the responsibility of public office, and the dignity of the nation.

Guksa Ji Woonan warned: "When evil reaches its peak, it collapses on its own." The signs of that collapse are now before our eyes. The silence of the Lee Jae-myung regime is no longer a defense. It is a political confession of guilt.

Defector intellectual Chairman Kim Tae-san also questioned Kim Hyun-ji's identity with reasonable suspicion. However, there has been no explanation or clarification whatsoever.

The people are asking, but power consistently maintains silence.

This is not authority, but arrogance; not the virtue of a leader, but irresponsibility that insults the people.

Confucius said: "民無信不立 (Min Wu Sin Bul Rip)" — A nation cannot stand without the trust of its people. This single phrase warns us today, over two thousand years later.

Power that has lost the trust of its people is as good as fallen. Without trust, the nation crumbles like a sandcastle. No excuse, no insistence can restore lost trust.

We address Lee Jae-myung: Reveal the truth. Silence is shame. Disclose Kim Hyun-ji's identity clearly and transparently.

The people are your masters, and the people are your appointing authority. Those who trample upon the people's right to know will be judged in the name of the people.

Fellow citizens, now is not the time for silence. The voice of the people demanding truth is the last shield protecting our nation.

Without trust, the regime that abandons the people's faith will crumble, and the people's justice will surely prevail.
