[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Yoo Seung-min, a member of the Future United Party, is breaking his long silence and raising his voice one after another. Just two days after posting a video message on his fan club 'Yusimcho' cafe expressing his intention to run for the presidency, he also presented conditions for winning the presidential election on Facebook, saying, "Let's compete in innovation."

On the 28th, Yoo said on Facebook, "If there is a will to power, conservatives should not fear change and innovation."

He stated, "'No matter how much criticism we receive, the power that ultimately changes the world is politics,' and 'The problem is the economy, the solution is politics' have been my consistent political views," adding, "After experiencing the 1997 IMF crisis, I gave up the path of an economist and started politics with the determination to solve the issues of livelihood and create a better world as a politician rather than as an economist."

He said, "The solution to overcoming the economic crisis in the 'post-COVID-19' era is 'Innovation of the Republic of Korea,'" adding, "Innovation in the Republic of Korea must begin not only in the economy but also in all fields including politics, society, welfare, labor, and education."

Yoo said, "The path the conservative opposition party must take is clear. We must bravely challenge the Democratic Party and the Moon Jae-in administration through the innovation competition of the Republic of Korea," adding, "If our party leads the innovation that creates a better world ahead of the Democratic Party, the metropolitan area, centrist voters, and young people will support us."

He said, "I, who have called for conservative innovation, had to endure difficult times under the oppression and suppression of power that failed to read the spirit of the times and public sentiment. However, now that conservatism has fallen to the bottom, it has become clear that reformist conservatism, which I have long advocated, is the only way for us to survive," pointing out, "The important thing is the conservatives' will to power."

He said, "If we really want to win the 2022 presidential election, we must be more innovative than the corrupt and incompetent progressive left forces to win," adding, "As I conclude my time in Yeouido, I now begin the innovation competition of the Republic of Korea. The 2022 presidential election will be an election where reformist conservatives defeat reactionary progressives."
