'Korea’s first special naturalized person' Yonsei University Medical School professor In Yo-han, who suffered a crushing defeat in the October 11 by-election for Gangseo-gu mayor in Seoul, was appointed as the chairman of the People Power Party's innovation committee and performed 'innovative surgery' for 42 days.

Having been promised full power by Representative Kim Ki-hyun, he proposed six innovation plans with the keywords of integration and sacrifice to the party as soon as he took office, saying, "Everything must be changed except the wife and children."

The first innovation plan proposed by Chairman In, 'Great Amnesty', resulted in the lifting of disciplinary action against former CEO Lee Jun-seok and Daegu Mayor Hong Jun-pyo, but mainstream figures such as leadership, senior officials, and Chin Yoon (Chin Yoon Seok-yeol) did not run for office or faced difficult circumstances. The 'sacrifice' asked to run for office. There was a conflict with the leadership over the agenda.

He also requested that he be recommended as chairman of the nomination management committee if the leadership did not decide on the sacrifice agenda, but was immediately rejected.

In the end, Chairman In said, “We achieved 50% success.” The Innovation Committee ended its activities about two weeks early, saying, “I will leave the remaining 50% to the party and wait longer.”
