Candidate Kim Seong-hwan of Gwangju Dongnam proposes 'unification' to candidate Park Ju-seon

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Kim Seonghwan, candidate for the Gwangju Metropolitan City Dong-Nam-gu (Eul) 4.15 general election, demanded unification with Park Juseon, candidate of the Minsheng Party.

On the 6th, candidate Kim said, "It is regrettable that the Minsheng Party's nomination process was not conducted fairly and transparently," and emphasized, "Since the Minsheng Party bases its support primarily in Honam and advocates political reform, Park Juseon must engage in unification for the restoration of 'Honam politics'."

He continued, "There is little difference in political ideology or orientation among the three candidates in Gwangju Dongnam," and stated, "Unification among candidates excluding the Democratic Party can be considered to counter the indiscriminate voting tendency for a specific party that hinders the accommodation of diverse local demands."

He added, "The unification must be one that voters, who have upheld the Gwangju spirit with unwavering pride, can understand and accept," and "Only if the unification process is fair and transparent can it garner voter support."
