[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Yoo Seung-min, a presidential candidate from the opposition, raised his voice toward President Moon Jae-in, saying "The era of tyrannical rule is over" and urged him to focus on improving people’s livelihoods.

On the 24th, Yoo said on Facebook, "The era of tyrannical rule is over, and the lame duck period has begun."

He pointed out, "President Moon and the ruling forces should now focus solely on people’s livelihoods until the end of their term," adding, "The soaring housing prices and monthly rent hikes are making life very difficult and frustrating."

Yoo emphasized, "Due to COVID-19, self-employed individuals, small business owners, and small and medium enterprises are struggling to survive, but there is no certainty about when vaccines will arrive or when the pandemic will end. The number of confirmed cases keeps rising, but there are no hospital beds, causing extreme anxiety," and urged, "Mr. President, please stop thinking about anything else and concentrate solely on the livelihood economy."

He criticized, "If you want to dismiss the Prosecutor General so badly, you should call him and ask for his resignation yourself," adding, "The people who are struggling to get by day by day are really annoyed and uninterested."
