Description
Book Introduction
The Lee Jae-myung we know, the Lee Jae-myung we don't know, the Lee Jae-myung we tried hard to ignore...
From boy band to presidential candidate, we take a close look at "their devil," Lee Jae-myung!

Any politician in the spotlight receives both support and criticism, but no one is as polarized as Lee Jae-myung.
From the mayor of Seongnam to the governor of Gyeonggi Province, he displayed exceptional administrative ability through bold execution, but he also earned both favor and dislike for his outspoken remarks.
Despite his defeat in the 20th presidential election, his victory in the 22nd general election, and his absurd impeachment, he displayed an overwhelming presence and stability more than any other politician. However, the antipathy toward Lee Jae-myung has now spread beyond simple dislike to extreme hatred.
Here, the ruling party's absurd slander and the active attacks of vested interests and the media also play a major role.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is the politician most hated by the Korean establishment today.

Publisher's Review
If there is someone who wants to make their identity invisible
There has to be someone who makes it visible
The only working principle is 'Be completely factual!'


Most of the attacks on Representative Lee Jae-myung are based on rumors that were cleared up long ago.
Nevertheless, the media and vested interests play a major role in allowing endless false accusations to surface.
The malicious and biased public opinion they produce has amplified the level of hatred directed at him, while accumulating fatigue towards him and even causing people to turn away from explanations.
In addition to this reality, the cartoonish situation of martial law that he suddenly encountered became the impetus for artist Park Si-baek to decide on a project he had never attempted before.
The idea was that if there are people who see the truth, people who don't see it, and people who don't let it show, then there should also be people who make it look accurate.
If there is one principle that the author has established while working, it is 'to be thoroughly based on facts.'
A balanced perspective is a principle that artist Park Si-baek has always upheld as a belief while working on various historical comics, such as 『Park Si-baek's Annals of the Joseon Dynasty』 and 『Park Si-baek's 35 Years of Japanese Colonial History』.
The first book to deal with individuals, “Lee Jae-myung’s Path,” is no exception.


'Drunk driving', 'Daejang-dong business', 'swearing at sister-in-law', 'actress scandal'...
Addressing head-on the various suspicions surrounding Representative Lee Jae-myung.


Artist Park Si-baek has successfully gathered together the fragmented stories about Lee Jae-myung, making him appear as a single, three-dimensional and consistent individual, from boy band to presidential candidate.
The suspicions surrounding Representative Lee Jae-myung were also covered without exception.
In particular, it clearly organizes the before and after of complex and provocative incidents, such as the drunk driving conviction that has been a long-standing tag following him, the whole story of the incident where he cursed his sister-in-law, and the Daejang-dong project where the merits and demerits were overturned, helping readers make their own judgments.
The purpose of this book is not to elevate individuals to 'heroes'.
Artist Park Si-baek sees Lee Jae-myung's life journey as neither a hero nor someone who achieved success through mere luck.
He is a practical politician who values ​​the effectiveness of policies more than anyone else, a fighter who has fought against vested interests, and a man who does not boast of success but lives with his childhood memories close to his heart.
Well then, let's delve into the life of Lee Jae-myung, a 'human' who is no one's devil.
