Lee Young: "Elections Approaching Cyberwarfare, Data Weapons Will Help Win Presidential Election"
People Power Party Supreme Council Member Candidate Relay Interview ① Rep. Lee Young
Aiming to Enter Supreme Council to Promote Data Center and More
[Asia Economy reporters Naju-seok and Geum Bo-ryeong] Lee Young, a member of the People Power Party who challenged the party's Supreme Council election, recently explained the importance of 'data' in next year's presidential election in an interview with Asia Economy. Lee said, "Elections are becoming increasingly scientific and intelligent, almost resembling cyber warfare," adding, "The U.S. Republican Party spent years building systems and has continuously evolved and developed models." Having proposed the establishment of a data center based on artificial intelligence within the party last year, he stated, "If I enter the Supreme Council, I will obtain the authority to properly push this forward."
Lee said, "In last year's general election, the People Power Party mobilized campaign vehicles and supporters to campaign vigorously, but the Democratic Party rented a big data analysis system from a certain telecommunications company to analyze local residents' movement patterns and reflected this in their pledges," emphasizing, "The election battle can change depending on how data is utilized."

Lee also believes that politics itself must change for victory in next year's presidential election. He said, "Just as people visit hospitals when they are sick, there needs to be an outlet for the public to express political issues," diagnosing, "Through such channels, the gap between the party and the public in viewing policy priorities can be reduced." In the same vein, he said internal communication channels within the party are also necessary. Since the current election structure is costly, alternatives to reform it are needed, and this too requires internal party communication to find solutions.
