[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Representative Hong Jun-pyo, who defied the party nomination and ran as an independent candidate in Daegu Suseong-e, expressed confidence in his victory, saying he "turned a frozen land into fertile soil in just one month."


On the 14th, Hong said on his Facebook, "I believe the results will be revealed in tomorrow's vote."


He refused the party's nomination committee's request to run in a difficult district in Seoul and insisted on running in Yangsan-eul, but after being cut off (excluded from nomination), he ultimately ran as an independent candidate in Daegu Suseong-e.



Hong said, "Even if the Daegu city party and the central party tighten the noose around Hong Jun-pyo, I firmly believe that the highly discerning residents of Suseong will make the right judgment," adding, "If Hong Jun-pyo is elected, I will definitely keep the four promises to change Suseong-eul, change Daegu, change the opposition party, and change the country."
