[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Sumi] Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, said regarding Yoon Seok-yeol's sure way to win the presidential election, "If he stays still, he will win."


On the 1st, Lee appeared on YTN's YouTube channel 'Hello Presidential Election' and was asked, "How should candidate Yoon definitely defeat Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party presidential candidate?" He answered this way.


Lee advised, "Rather than being overly eager, if he continues to deliver strong messages to the public and prepares well for debates, Yoon will have many advantages."


When asked about his relationship with Yoon after resigning from the election countermeasures committee, Lee replied, "It’s been a week since we last contacted each other." He added, "The person who feels regretful is the one who reaches out."


Regarding the so-called Yoon Core Group (key associates of candidate Yoon) controversy, he said, "Yoon should cut ties with the Yoon Core Group."


This is because he predicted that young voters might support a third candidate rather than Yoon, who is surrounded by the Yoon Core Group.


Meanwhile, Lee also took a sharp stance against candidate Lee Jae-myung. Especially regarding the evaluation that Lee is strong in debates, he dismissed it by saying, "He has rarely kept what he said in debates so far."



Regarding the 'carol video' released on YouTube by Lee Jae-myung’s side on December 24th to celebrate Christmas, he evaluated it with words like "trying hard" and "childish."
