[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Former Liberty Korea Party leader Hong Joon-pyo targeted former Prime Minister Lee Nak-yeon on the 28th, saying, "It is truly embarrassing to see the person most responsible for Moon Jae-in's tyranny running in Jongno, pretending to smile and act generous as if unrelated to the Moon administration, thereby deceiving the residents of Jongno-gu."

Former leader Hong said, "We have already been harshly judged by the people through the impeachment presidential election and the disguised peace by-election. Now it is the Moon administration's turn," expressing this view.

He stated, "This general election is about holding accountable for economic collapse, diplomatic isolation, North Korean nuclear slavery, Ulsan mayoral election corruption, the Cho Kuk incident, and COVID-19 quarantine failures," adding, "The essence of the Jongno election is the judgment of the corrupt and incompetent Moon administration officials."

He continued, "I firmly believe in the consciousness level of the residents of Jongno, the political number one district," emphasizing, "I firmly believe in the anger vote of Jongno residents punishing the officials of the Moon administration."

He concluded by saying, "Anger votes will arise across the country," and "I am confident that the Moon administration will suffer a crushing defeat in this general election due to the people's anger vote."

Earlier that day, Hong also responded positively to Ahn Cheol-soo, leader of the People’s Party, deciding to forgo his constituency nomination. Through his Facebook, he said, "I wholeheartedly welcome Ahn’s decision to give up his constituency nomination," adding, "Now is the time to form an anti-Moon coalition to judge the incompetence and corruption of the Moon administration."

He emphasized, "Now everyone must unite to judge the Moon Jae-in administration in this general election and achieve a regime change in 2022 so that the country can become a normal state," and added, "If the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place finishers in the last presidential election unite with Hwang Kyo-ahn, leader of the United Future Party, we can surely achieve regime change."
