[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hye-min] Kim Ki-sun, a member of the United Future Party (Gangwon Wonju Gap, re-elected), announced on the 6th that he will not run in the April 15 general election.

In a statement released that day, Kim said, "I want to put down this heavy burden and pass the important role of judging the Moon Jae-in administration to younger and more capable talents."

He added, "Over the past three years, the lies, hypocrisy, and arrogance of the Moon Jae-in left-wing administration have been destroying the foundation of the country, and if we fail to properly judge them in this general election, there is no future for this country. I have devoted myself wholeheartedly to representing Wonju in the struggle to restore our collapsing nation, but now I will step down."

Kim emphasized, "I hope to become an honorable warrior of Wonju Gap in the April 15 general election and fight to win. If you do not win, fight desperately with the resolve that you will be a sinner of history who ruined the country."

Meanwhile, in the Democratic Party of Korea, former Gangwon Province Governor Lee Kwang-jae has already declared his candidacy for Wonju Gap.
