Mural Targeting Yoon Seok-yeol Replaces 'Julie Mural'... Paintings of Wang, Dog Apology, and Jeon Du-hwan

New Mural on the Wall of a Used Bookstore in Gwancheol-ro, Jongno-gu
Graffiti Artist 'Ninbolt' Paints It

[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] A mural presumed to target Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, has appeared on the wall of a secondhand bookstore in Gwancheol-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, where the controversial 'Julie mural' had been located.

On the 13th, the outer wall of this secondhand bookstore building featured a palm print with the character '王 (Wang)' that sparked shamanism controversy, a caricature of an apple known as the 'dog apple' which caused ridicule, and murals of a middle-aged woman presumed to be Yoon's mother-in-law and a man believed to be former President Jeon Du-hwan.

All of these images relate to Yoon's family and his controversial remarks. Earlier, during the primary race, Yoon had made a defending statement saying, "Although President Jeon Du-hwan made mistakes, many people say that except for the military coup and the May 18 incident, his politics were good."

The mural is said to have been painted over two days starting from the 11th by graffiti artist 'Ninbolt.' Ninbolt's agency reportedly rented the outer wall until June next year and plans to promote various cultural activities.

On the outer wall of this building in July, a mural appeared featuring the phrase 'Julie's Men,' a woman's face resembling Yoon's wife Kim Geon-hee, and the words 'Julie's Dream! The First Lady's Dream!' which attracted supporters and YouTubers. After the controversy escalated, the bookstore covered it with white paint.
