[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Kim Seonghwan, a preliminary candidate for the National Assembly election in Dong and Nam Districts (Eul) of Gwangju Metropolitan City, has announced an extensive livelihood tour.


On the 15th, Candidate Kim stated in a press release, “Since the Minsheng Party advocates politics centered on the livelihood of the people, I will seek answers within the public sentiment,” and added, “I will conduct a livelihood tour called ‘Gucheonggudap (九請求答)’ to directly request and seek answers from voters.”


He continued, “‘Gucheonggudap (九請求答)’ is a pledge prepared to present political philosophy and the future vision of the region and to resolve local complaints,” emphasizing, “Through the livelihood tour, it will be a journey to carefully understand the hearts and intentions of voters and faithfully reflect them in the pledges.”


Looking into the specific aspects of Candidate Kim’s ‘Gucheonggudap (九請求答),’ there are nine major areas.


Specifically, they are ▲ “Everyone is happy when women are happy! Seeking ‘happiness’ from women” ▲ “Experience and wisdom, old age is strength! Seeking ‘wisdom’ from the elderly” ▲ “The most respected figure, the father! Seeking ‘steadfast support’ from fathers” ▲ “Cheongchuleoram, Cheongoram! Seeking ‘hope’ and ‘passion’ from the youth” ▲ “True comfort amid inconvenience! Seeking ‘genuine welfare’ from the disabled” ▲ “Finding clues in the backbone of the economy! Seeking ‘economy’ from small business owners and traditional market merchants” ▲ “Circulation of emotions and humanities, art! Seeking ‘the future of artistic Gwangju’ from cultural and artistic figures” ▲ “Finding coexistence in diversity! Seeking ‘coexistence’ in Asian culture and multiculturalism” ▲ “Finding Gwangju’s future in Dongnam District! Seeking ‘Gwangju’s future’ from the amenities of Dongnam District such as Mudeungsan Mountain, Gwangjucheon Stream, Green Road, the May 18 Gwangju Democratization Movement, and the Asia Culture Center.”



Candidate Kim said, “Resolving local complaints is the basic duty of a National Assembly member, and making the livelihood of local residents richer and safer is essential for legislative activities,” adding, “Choosing ‘Jeguposin (除舊布新),’ which means discarding the old and unfolding the new, for the happiness of Dongnam (Eul) residents is solely the voters’ responsibility.”
