[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol is scheduled to cast an early vote on the 2nd in Namgajwa-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, together with his father.

Yoon's side stated on the 1st, "Former Prosecutor General Yoon will accompany his father to the polling station in Namgajwa-dong, Seodaemun-gu, and cast an early vote in the morning." Namgajwa-dong, Seodaemun-gu is where Yoon's father, Yoon Ki-jung, an emeritus professor at Yonsei University, resides.

Since resigning from the position of Prosecutor General on the 4th of last month, this is Yoon's first public schedule, drawing attention to whether he will send a political message. Yoon is leading in presidential candidate support ratings in several opinion polls.

As the opposition camp is actively encouraging early voting, this is also interpreted as Yoon aligning with that effort.
