[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Dong-joo] On the 10th, Joo Ho-young, former floor leader of the People Power Party, officially declared his candidacy for party leader at the National Assembly. So far, the People Power Party's leadership race is becoming unpredictable, with about seven candidates including first-term and 2030 generation figures such as Kim Woong and Lee Jun-seok, as well as former lawmaker Na Kyung-won from the Seoul metropolitan area, aiming to break away from the image of being a Yeongnam-based party. Joo, who recently led the victory in the April 7 election and is pushing for a merger with the People Party, is considered a strong candidate with recent notable issues.
