Kim Du-kwan Visits Gwangju: "I Will Definitely Defeat Yoon Seok-yeol as Presidential Candidate"
"Candidate Chu Mi-ae Also Responsible for Failing to Properly Discipline"
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] Democratic Party presidential candidate Kim Du-kwan said on the 19th during his visit to Gwangju, "Former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol is insulting the spirit of Gwangju," adding, "I will definitely remove him from the presidential race."
On the same day, Kim visited the May 18th cemetery and said, "I want to clean the monument that former Prosecutor General Yoon touched," criticizing, "History is going backwards. The prosecutor who wants to create a prosecution republic is leading in the approval ratings. It's absurd."
He also held former Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae responsible. Kim stated, "Chu Mi-ae is largely responsible for failing to properly discipline the Prosecutor General and nurturing him into a presidential candidate," criticizing, "Because Chu is running for office, Yoon Seok-yeol's approval ratings have not dropped."
