[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] "I am living in a semi-lease with 4 million KRW and 500,000 KRW rent. I understand the hearts of the common people without homes better than anyone else. We need to comfort their hearts with policies that accompany them and talk about starting again together."


On the 27th, Woo Sang-ho, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea running for the Seoul mayoral by-election in April, made these remarks at the 'Policy Expo in Seoul' event hosted by the Seoul City Party.

On that day, Woo, who gave the keynote speech together with former Minister of SMEs and Startups Park Young-sun, presented his vision on real estate policy through a pre-prepared video, saying, "If we emphasize the values of democracy and progressivism and compete with pro-commoner policies, we can win."


Woo said, "We will provide public rental housing where young people can live for 10 years, and public jeonse housing for newlyweds to live for 20 years." He continued, "We will supply public owner-occupied housing where common people without homes can live for 30 years," explaining, "This will truly solve many housing problems for the common people."



Woo emphasized, "I will create a Seoul where couples do not fight, happily have children, find jobs, and dream of the future in public housing supplied by Woo Sang-ho."
