[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Ahn Cheol-soo, leader of the People’s Party, stated on the 25th, “We must win the proportional representation party vote this time,” and added, “We must defeat the trick parties and disguised parties of the entrenched two major parties and fulfill the role of a strong and rational balancer opposing the entrenched two major parties (People’s Party).”

On the same day in the afternoon, Ahn attended a video conference with all proportional representation National Assembly candidates and said, “This election is an important one that will determine whether our Republic of Korea can move toward the future or not,” and criticized, “The Democratic Party of Korea pushed through the election law by force under the name of reform, but less than three months later, they are denying it and heading toward chaos.”

Ahn pointed out, “Centrist voters must not be deceived by the centrist cosplay of the entrenched two major parties this time,” and added, “The entrenched two major parties usually fight over their own interests at the extremes but pretend to be centrists only during elections.”

Ahn also said, “Favorable public opinion toward the People’s Party is spreading. The more disadvantaged the entrenched powers become, the fiercer the criticism and attacks against the People’s Party will be. In fact, they are already intensifying,” and criticized, “Many fake news stories are already being spread. Although ‘Druking’ has been caught, their true nature remains the same, and their black-and-white propaganda and slander will continue.”

Choi Yeon-sook, head nurse at Daegu Dongsan Hospital and candidate number 1 on the proportional representation list, said, “A fateful encounter with leader Ahn during recent medical volunteer work in the Daegu area brought me to this position. Although I am a political novice, I gained courage and confidence from the words that anyone with the right spirit and goals can join,” and added, “I will fulfill my mission to realize a safe society through legislative activities related to infectious disease prevention systems in preparation for a second novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) crisis.”

Kim Geun-tae, former head of the Seoul National University branch of the National Democratic Youth Association and candidate number 4 on the proportional representation list, said, “The freedoms, democracy, and republic that sustain the nation are collapsing. Democracy is being destroyed by those who talk about democracy,” and stated, “What can change this is to restore the values of reason and rationality. The People’s Party will work to set the Republic of Korea right.”
