Kim Jong-in: "Who Can Actually Work... The Unified Opposition Candidate Will Be Oh Se-hoon"
[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] Kim Jong-in, Emergency Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, expressed confidence on the 10th, saying, "Oh Se-hoon, the People Power Party's Seoul mayoral candidate, will be confirmed as the unified opposition candidate."
After finishing his visit to the Myeongdong shopping district in Seoul that day, Kim met with reporters and said regarding Oh's approval rating, "Until now, our party had not confirmed a candidate quickly, so there was little interest, but once the candidate was confirmed, the approval rating of the People Power Party candidate inevitably rose because people think about who the candidate of this major party is." He added, "From my perspective, I can firmly say that the unified opposition candidate will also be confirmed as Oh."
He stated, "Ultimately, our country's party system operates almost like a two-party system, and now that our party's candidate has been confirmed, the general public opinion is that the opposition candidate will inevitably be the so-called People Power Party candidate."
Kim said, "Over the past 20 years, the People Power Party candidate has controlled Seoul for nearly 10 years, and the Democratic Party mayor Park Won-soon served for about 9 years. Comparing their achievements, I believe Seoul citizens can judge which party manages Seoul better."

He continued, "Our party confirmed Oh, who previously served as mayor, as the candidate. Since this election is for a term of only one year remaining, ordinary citizens naturally think that whoever enters office quickly can stabilize Seoul and carry out practical work for the citizens sooner. Therefore, Oh was confirmed as the candidate because he is the person who has managed Seoul."
