[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] Yoo Seung-min, a presidential candidate from the People Power Party, made his final appeal to the public sentiment in Daegu and Gyeongbuk (TK) on the 31st. Yoo said, "Is it possible to achieve a regime change with former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol and People Power Party lawmaker Hong Joon-pyo?" and promised, "I will become a president who creates a better world."


At a press conference held at the People Power Party Daegu City Office that day, Yoo stated, "I came to my hometown Daegu, where I was born and raised, to make my final appeal," adding, "I have always been proud to be a son of Daegu and Gyeongbuk."


He said, "I have not received support from my hometown people so far," and added, "I have accepted it as my own fault and karma. I earnestly ask you to now set aside any resentments you have towards me and give a final chance to the son of Daegu whom you have raised."


Yoo said, "Please consider whether it is more important for the candidate I support now to win the primary, or to put forward a candidate who can win the general election and bring about regime change," and stated, "A candidate who lacks basic common sense, policy, and debate preparation cannot possibly defeat candidate Lee Jae-myung."


He asked, "Can you win with candidate Yoon Seok-yeol or candidate Hong Joon-pyo?" and said, "Only I, Yoo Seung-min, who can overwhelm Lee Jae-myung in policy, debate, and morality, and gain support from the moderate voters, the metropolitan area, and the youth, can realize your earnest hope for regime change."



Yoo said, "With the power granted by the people to the president, I want to make the Republic of Korea a true democratic republic, a wealthier country, and a stronger nation," and urged, "Please vote according to your conviction and conscience on who should be our party’s candidate to defeat the Democratic Party candidate and save this country."
