[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Kim Yong-tae, a member of the United Future Party, declared his candidacy for the Seoul Guro-eul district, stating that "Guro-eul, along with Jongno, is the touchstone for the Seoul general election."

In his declaration on the 24th, Kim said, "I will face off against Yoon Gun-young, former Chief of the Blue House Situation Room, who was President Moon Jae-in's close aide, leader of the Blue House 386 activist group, and the chief executor of the Moon administration's state affairs," promising a clean and impressive contest.

He stated, "So far, conservatives have been mired in old habits and complacency, failing to properly understand the rapidly changing social structure and the transformed hearts of the people. They have focused only on growth and efficiency, neglecting the values of fairness and justice. They hesitated to adopt revolutionary ideas and policies for women and youth."

Kim emphasized, "Now, the United Future Party is struggling for conservative innovation through self-reform and integration. We will appeal to the people for another chance by establishing social values and a national plan that the majority of citizens can acknowledge. I will do my best on that path."
