[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Former lawmaker Na Kyung-won, who is running in the People Power Party's Seoul mayoral primary, said on the 9th about being called 'Na Kyung-young,' "I think Na Kyung-young is fine if it's for future generations. If I win, I want to give even more."

In a phone interview on CBS Radio's Kim Hyun-jung News Show that day, Na said regarding her recent pledge to support newlyweds and young people living in land-lease housing with interest subsidies worth about 117 million won, "If the second term of the civilian government is maintained, I want to provide even more interest support."

She explained, "When you ask people who choose not to marry why they don't, men say the first reason is the burden of child support, and the second is housing. For women, the first is self-realization, and the second is housing. Housing is very important," adding, "This pledge uses about one percent of Seoul's budget." She continued, "When the maximum interest support is provided, if we eliminate unnecessary budgets and correct this, we can offer benefits to more newlyweds and young people."

Regarding recruiting former Minister of Information and Communication Jin Dae-je from the Roh Moo-hyun administration as an advisor, Na said, "Practically speaking, this allows for a larger and more professional city administration, and I think many people will support this more."

About former Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon, she criticized, "Ten years ago, he risked his position without consulting the party over providing lunch money for children," and said, "A mayor who voluntarily stepped down and is now seeking votes again has very little competitiveness and justification in the main election."
