[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Hwang Kyo-ahn, leader of the United Future Party and overall election committee chairman, on the early voting day of the general election, made a deep bow to the people and residents of Jongno, saying, "I earnestly ask the people not for the United Future Party, but for the country. Please help us." He also expressed his intention to focus on the Jongno election during the remaining election period.

At a press conference held at Marronnier Park in Jongno, Seoul, the constituency of candidate Jisan, Hwang said, "The public's expectations for the United Future Party in this general election are high," adding, "I and the United Future Party have made many efforts to be different from other established parties, but it is still not enough. If things continue like this, it will not be easy. We lack the power to check the ruling party," he said.

He said, "Finally, early voting has started today. It is the day when the people and residents of Jongno can judge the Moon Jae-in administration with their votes," and urged, "I earnestly ask you to actively participate in early voting."

Hwang continued, "Everyone says the Jongno election is difficult. Many people tried to dissuade me when I was about to run because of that. There were quite a few who told me to make other strategic choices," emphasizing, "But this Jongno election is not simply an election to elect a single district lawmaker. It is an election with a greater meaning."

He raised his voice, saying, "I have put everything on the line and jumped into Jongno. This general election is a decisive election for the fate of the Republic of Korea, and on a smaller scale, my political destiny is also at stake," adding, "Only if I, Hwang Kyo-ahn, am elected can we stop the fall of Korea."

Regarding the future direction of the election, Hwang said, "Until the election ends, I will focus solely on Jongno and put everything on the line," and added, "Each person running in their own area with a determination to give their all is the way to win the hearts of the people."

When asked about concerns over the unfavorable situation in the metropolitan area, he said, "I believe the people will not be shaken by the unfair and improper (poll) results from polling agencies," emphasizing, "I believe in the greatness of the people."
