[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Hwang Kyo-ahn, leader of the United Future Party, will visit the Daegu region, which is struggling due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).


The United Future Party announced on the 27th that Leader Hwang will visit Daegu Dongsan Hospital, Seomun Market, and Daegu City Hall.


Earlier, President Moon Jae-in visited Daegu on the 25th, and Prime Minister Chung Sye-kyun has been stationed in Daegu since the 26th to begin on-site command. This appears to be aimed at calming public sentiment, which worsened after Hong Ik-pyo, spokesperson for the Democratic Party of Korea, made remarks about 'locking down Daegu.'



Leader Hwang plans to visit Daegu Dongsan Hospital at 10:20 a.m., Seomun Market at 10:50 a.m., and Daegu City Hall at 11:30 a.m., where he will listen to the voices of citizens and local party officials.
