The Gyeongbuk Provincial Chapter of the Democratic Party of Korea called for an immediate halt to the iSMR (Innovative Small Modular Reactor) petition drive in Gyeongju, citing a lack of public discussion and illegal promotional practices. They highlighted concerns about signatures being collected via local leaders, which could compromise administrative neutrality.

The chapter noted the illegal status of many banners promoting the iSMR, demanding transparency regarding their funding and installation. They insisted on the necessity of public discourse and a fair policy-making process, emphasizing that procedural integrity is essential for significant policies affecting citizen safety.
