[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Boryeong] Hong Joon-pyo, a member of the People Power Party, once again emphasized the difficulty of forming a 'true one team' with Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate. At the same time, he called on Yoon's core aides (Yoonhaekgwan) and hardline right-wing YouTubers to take the lead in fighting for the candidate.

On the 24th, Hong stated on Facebook, "I have different policies from candidate Yoon and I am not confident in shielding (defending) the candidate's family scandals, so I absolutely cannot take the front line."

He continued, "I hope the 'Teultube' that created candidate Yoon, some biased media, and Yoonhaekgwan (core aides of candidate Yoon Seok-yeol) will take the lead in the forefront of regime change."

Hong explained, "No one is speaking out about the presidential election going wrong because they are watching the candidate's mood, so I feel I must speak frankly at least. I am answering questions on Cheongkkum with that thought. Since I am already participating as an advisor to the Daegu campaign committee, there should be no quarrels."

He did not forget to give advice for the party. Hong said, "By early February next year, local government heads and local council members from the Democratic Party, which accounts for 80% nationwide, will go all out in electioneering with government power. If we do not create an overwhelming difference now, regime change will become difficult."

He also commented on the special pardon of former President Park Geun-hye announced that day, saying, "It seems to be a divide-and-conquer tactic by the ruling party, so I hope you respond actively."
