Democratic Party (DP) Chairman Lee Jae-myung recruited Lee Rae-kyung, head of a radical group, as chairman of the innovation committee of the majority party on Monday. But after it was found that the innovation leader had claimed that the Cheonan sinking was fabricated by “the hegemonic forces in the United States” to damage inter-Korean relations, he voluntarily resigned that day.
