[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] Former People Power Party Emergency Committee Chairman Kim Jong-in expressed on the 3rd that he has no intention of supporting former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol's presidential bid under the current circumstances.

Before a private special lecture for professors and students at Kyungpook National University that day, Kim told reporters, "I cannot have confidence myself," adding, "I will not do anything unless I am confident." He made it clear that he cannot offer support without confidence.

He said, "Personally, I have experienced this several times in the past," and added, "In the end, the results were never good, so I could only be disappointed with myself."

He also revealed similar feelings toward other leading presidential candidates besides former Prosecutor General Yoon. Kim said, "Not only Yoon but also others who are going around here and there now seem unable to present a clear vision."

Regarding Lee Jun-seok, who is causing a stir as a candidate for the People Power Party leadership, he commented, "It is a straightforward expression of how much the general public's perception of so-called old politicians has changed."
