[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Former Liberty Korea Party leader Hong Joon-pyo stated on the 13th, "We are entering the process of organizing the constituencies of Miryang, Changnyeong, Haman, and Uiryeong." This is interpreted as Hong Joon-pyo effectively formalizing his candidacy for Yangsan, Gyeongnam, after discussions with the Liberty Korea Party's nomination management committee.


On the same day, Hong wrote on his Facebook, "I will meet those who have supported me to explain the situation and ask for their understanding," expressing this intention.


He continued, "Recently, when I visited various places in my hometown, the most common questions I received were 'Life is difficult, so it is truly welcome and appreciated that someone with power has come,' and 'Please revive the Miryang, Changnyeong, Haman, and Uiryeong areas.' Each time, I responded, 'The entire country is in ruins; how can only my region prosper?'"


He said, "The essence of the problem is that if we remove this administration and set the country right, this region will naturally recover," adding, "The Moon Jae-in administration must now be ousted. That is the purpose of this April general election."


Hong emphasized, "If the administration does not change, neither my country nor my region can survive," and urged, "This time, please do not be deceived and make sure to vote well. The power to change the country comes from the people's choice."


He further urged, "That is the April general election. If the administration does not change, neither my country nor my region can survive. Please do not be deceived this time and make sure to vote well."



He concluded, "The power to change the country comes from the people's choice. Let's oust the Moon administration with a landslide victory in the general election. We must set the country right."
