Ahn Cheol-soo Makes First Campaign Appearance Supporting Oh Se-hoon: "I Will Shout Oh Se-hoon Until My Throat Hurts"

Emphasizing Regime Judgment Theory at a Key Campaign Rally Near Seoul City Hall
"Only Citizen Participation Can Judge an Immoral Regime"

[Asia Economy Reporters Naju-seok and Park Joon-yi] Ahn Cheol-soo, leader of the People’s Party, took to the campaign trail on the 25th to support Oh Se-hoon, the People Power Party’s candidate for Seoul mayor. Ahn called for support for Oh while shouting the “regime judgment theory.”

On the day, Ahn spoke from a campaign vehicle at Oh’s base rally held in front of Daehanmun Gate at Deoksugung Palace in Seoul, saying, “I stand here to keep the promise to Seoul citizens to achieve unification and judge the Moon Jae-in regime.”

Ahn said, “This election is not only about choosing the future but first about judgment. This election is being held after wasting hundreds of billions of won of taxpayers’ money due to the former mayor’s sexual crime. Which party shamelessly runs for office after causing secondary harm to the victim by calling them a complainant, and granting themselves a self-immunity certificate through their party-wide vote, even when they should be apologizing to the people for their sins?”

He pointed out, “Such shameless Democratic Party must be decisively judged.” He then referred to the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) employees’ land speculation scandal, saying, “It shows how the society has completely collapsed in morality and justice due to unfair advantages and privileges in Korea, as they used their power and information to gain huge unearned income.” Ahn said, “Young people and ordinary citizens cannot buy houses no matter what, and homeowners cannot sell because of taxes, yet LH employees made huge profits by using information to secure land and plant trees. It’s not just LH employees; high-ranking officials who received reports and the government’s power holders must not have stayed silent.”

Ahn said, “Only the participation of citizens in voting can judge the rotten, incompetent, and immoral power.” He added, “I, Ahn Cheol-soo, stand here today for unification solely to win this election and bring about regime change next year. If I can judge the Moon Jae-in regime and lay the foothold for regime change, I will shout the name of the opposition unified candidate Oh Se-hoon a hundred, a thousand times, even if my throat bursts.”
