[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, expressed his intention to transform the party into a pragmatic party through the New Era Preparation Committee. Kim Han-gil, former leader of the New Politics Alliance for Democracy and chairman of the New Era Preparation Committee, also stated that the committee would differentiate itself from the existing People Power Party campaign committee.

On the day of the plaque ceremony for the New Era Preparation Committee, Candidate Yoon said, "The New Era Preparation Committee will help the People Power Party change into a pragmatic party based on practical approaches, following the 'New Frontier' spirit," adding, "We will include everyone who feels hesitant to directly participate in the People Power Party."

The New Frontier was a new reform policy introduced by U.S. President Kennedy in 1960. It aimed to give new meaning to the frontier, a symbol of pioneering spirit, with goals such as enhancing social welfare, abolishing racial discrimination, and achieving high economic growth.

Candidate Yoon added, "We will play a major role in reflecting the diverse demands and wishes of the people so that a government for the people can be born."

Chairman Kim Han-gil said, "No matter how much I think about it, the conclusion is regime change. Regime change is the spirit of the times," and added, "The only person who can realize regime change is Candidate Yoon Seok-yeol."

He also said, "We will announce the committee’s organizational structure and appointments sequentially starting tomorrow," and added, "It should be seen as almost completely differentiated from the existing campaign committee."

The committee is a direct organization under Candidate Yoon, established with the purpose of creating a platform where centrists, rational progressives, and the 2030 generation can all come together. It is interpreted as an effort to expand the party’s outreach by recruiting centrists or rational progressives separately from the campaign committee. Candidate Yoon is expected to attend the plaque ceremony on the day.

The committee, directly under Candidate Yoon, was established with the aim of creating a platform where centrists, rational progressives, and the 2030 generation all participate. It consists of six divisions, a public relations office, a situation room, and a secretariat. The official website is recruiting talents to participate in the 'Truth Delivery Division' and the 'Kkanbu Finding Division.' The Truth Delivery Division will focus on online communication, while the Kkanbu Finding Division will engage in communication through direct visits by the candidate.
