[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Hwang Kyo-ahn, leader of the United Future Party, urged support for the party on the 12th, saying, "If the Democratic Party of Korea wins the general election, in short, the country will collapse."

On the same day, Hwang made this statement during a focused rally appealing to the public in front of Cheonggye Plaza in Gwanghwamun.

He said, "The Moon Jae-in administration is a '3-no (無) administration,'" explaining, "The economy under the Moon Jae-in administration has disappeared. Security and diplomacy under the Moon Jae-in administration have disappeared. Liberal democracy has also disappeared."

"These three values that we have cherished so far are all collapsing under this '3-no administration.' We must definitely stop the Moon Jae-in administration," he added.

Hwang continued, "If this administration wins the upcoming general election, what will happen? In short, the country will collapse," and said, "There are numerous corruptions happening under the Moon Jae-in administration. There is election fraud. Have you heard of 'Burning Sun'? Have you heard of the 'Lime scandal'? Is solar power being done properly? All these corruptions will be exposed."

He also humbly acknowledged the faults of the United Future Party and appealed with a low posture. Hwang said, "When the people listened to my words, I reflected on myself. We have made many mistakes in the past. We have not yet fully won the hearts of the people," adding, "So, from a while ago, I have been entering among the people with a truly humble attitude. I have made a deep bow."

He said, "The lower I went, the more I saw the pain of our people. Every time I saw their pain, the suffering of our people, my heart ached," emphasizing, "I resolved again and again to stand with these people, even at the risk of my life, and to stop the Moon Jae-in administration that causes suffering to the common people."

He also criticized the arrogance of the Moon administration. Hwang said, "But this administration has no people. It only has factions. It only has its own side. Can the country be properly run like this?" He raised his voice, saying, "They say they will get 180 seats in this general election. Everyone, if they say they will take the votes, will they just take them? Shouldn't the people give them?"

At the focused rally that day, Hwang was joined by Park Hyung-joon and Shin Se-don, co-chairs of the election committee; Na Kyung-won, Seoul election committee chair; Oh Se-hoon, Seoul regional chair; Jin Soo-hee, candidate for Seoul Jung-gu Seongdong-gu Gap; Ji Sang-wook, candidate for Seoul Jung-gu Seongdong-gu Eul; Kim Sam-hwa, candidate for Seoul Jungnang-gu Gap; Jeong Yang-seok, candidate for Seoul Gangbuk-gu Gap; Lee Dong-seop, candidate for Seoul Nowon-gu Eul; Lee Jun-seok, candidate for Seoul Nowon-gu Byeong; Kang Sung-man, candidate for Seoul Geumcheon-gu; and Kim Woong, candidate for Seoul Songpa-gu Gap.
