[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Dong-joo] The Democratic Party presidential primary candidates held a 'One Team' agreement ceremony for the 20th presidential election candidates at the central party office in Yeouido, Seoul on the 28th.


Candidates Lee Jae-myung, Kim Doo-kwan, Chung Sye-kyun, Lee Nak-yeon, Park Yong-jin, and Chu Mi-ae (in order of ballot number) stated, "We will do our best to propose future-oriented policy alternatives for the people and for the Republic of Korea," and "As Democratic Party presidential candidates, we will uphold dignity and honesty as our highest virtues."



As recent clashes between some candidates, including Lee Jae-myung and Lee Nak-yeon, reached a dangerous level, they agreed to refrain from negative attacks and focus on policy competition. Attention is focused on whether this gentleman's agreement among the candidates will be observed going forward.
