On the 28th, Park Ji-won, a member of the Democratic Party, posted on his social media, saying, "'Assassin(s)' is a fiction film," and added, "The 2022 Bucheon International Comics Festival caused a stir with 'Yoon Seok-yeol Train,' and even then, people said let's treat comics as comics." He continued, "DJ said, 'If cultural artists interfere, their creative power declines, so they say, 'Support but don't interfere,'" and added, "If you make a fuss in the National Assembly, it won't be well promoted," and added, "Let's watch 'Assassin(s)'." Previously, political criticism arose regarding 'assassins' that films could distort facts by dealing with actual historical events and figures. ,,,, Park appears to have rebutted the controversy surrounding past political satirical works: 'Yoon Seok-yeol's Car' is a high school student's comic work exhibited at the 25th Bucheon International Comics Festival in 2022. The work won the gold prize at the National Student Comics Contest hosted by the Korea Manhwa Contents Agency, and it contained content satirizing President Yoon Suk-yeol. When the exhibition became controversial, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism issued a stern warning to the agency. At the time, the opposition Democratic Party reportedly filed a complaint with the National Human Rights Commission, claiming it was an infringement on freedom of expression. Park seems to have reaffirmed his position by recalling such past cases, emphasizing that 'assassins(s)' should also be viewed within the realm of creative works,,, Yes, movies are movies We should watch them,,, What if you get so frenzied over a few lines that you risk your life??????
