[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Seul-gi] Former People Power Party lawmaker Lee Eon-ju, who was the co-chairman of Hong Joon-pyo's presidential campaign committee, recently evaluated the actions of Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party presidential candidate, saying, "Candidate Lee Jae-myung is quickly approaching the 2030 generation and imitating Hong Joon-pyo."

On the 11th, Lee posted on his Facebook, "He directly entered online communities of the 2030 generation to look at the content and shared the posts uploaded there within his party," he said.

He added, "The day before yesterday, he shared posts criticizing the Democratic Party on Femco, and yesterday on DC Inside, changing his communication style thoroughly to be tailored to the youth in order to understand the concerns and needs of the 2030 generation," and explained, "He is actively benchmarking Hong Joon-pyo by reflecting the stance of the Donghak Ants by effectively pledging reforms such as short-selling reform and Ministry of Gender Equality and Family reform."

Furthermore, Lee said, "This attempt by candidate Lee Jae-myung is not simply a one-time imitation of Hong Joon-pyo or copying pledges, but he sincerely understands the 2030 generation and communicates on their level, benchmarking Hong Joon-pyo’s method of matching their needs, so it should not be taken lightly."

Regarding why the 2030 generation supports Hong Joon-pyo of the People Power Party, Lee said, "It is because Hong sincerely communicated with them and talked about the future they will live in, more than in the past," emphasizing, "So if you truly want to gain the interest of the 2030 generation, you need to understand their way of thinking and reflect their worldview rather than blindly copying a few pledges."

He continued, "Currently, candidate Lee Jae-myung’s sincerity toward the 2030 generation is not something the People Power Party can easily overlook."

Meanwhile, candidate Lee recently sparked controversy by sharing a post criticizing feminism. On the 10th, he shared on his Facebook a post from DC Inside pleading against 'male reverse discrimination' with the message, "Please read together." The author of the post criticized the so-called 'feminism' policies led by the Moon Jae-in administration and appealed to candidate Lee, saying, "Please stop the madness of feminism."
