Lee Jae-myung: "Yoon Seok-yeol's palm 'King of Wages (王)' is absurd"

[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Lee Jae-myung, governor of Gyeonggi Province and a presidential primary candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, expressed disappointment over the fall of Lee Han-joo, head of the policy headquarters of his presidential campaign (former director of the Gyeonggi Research Institute), due to real estate issues.

He also emphasized that if he becomes president, anyone involved in real estate problems will not be appointed to any position. Additionally, he reacted with disbelief to the controversy surrounding Yoon Seok-yeol, the People Power Party candidate, and his "Palm Wage King" incident.

On the 3rd, after announcing the Gyeonggi regional pledges as a Democratic Party presidential primary candidate, Lee visited the press room and said, "I am disappointed that Policy Headquarters Chief Lee Han-joo fell due to real estate issues, but he resigned and took responsibility. I have nothing more to say. It is regrettable."

He added, "What is clear to me is that even if such a problem had occurred after being elected (president), I would not have appointed or promoted such a person to a high public office," emphasizing, "Even without the law, I would not have done it."

Regarding Yoon Seok-yeol's "Palm Wage King" controversy, he said, "I don't know why he carries around a prince (왕ja) drawn on his palm," and introduced, "Among the comments on the related article yesterday, there was one saying it was a strategy to expand the undecided voter base, and I laughed a lot after reading it."

Furthermore, he said, "There was also a comment saying that while they were told to attract the undecided voters (mudangcheung, a centrist group without a preference for either party), they ended up attracting 'mudang' (a person whose profession is fortune-telling and shamanistic rituals)," showing his difficulty in understanding Yoon candidate's palm prince.
