[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jin-young] Jeong Se-gyun, former Prime Minister and chairman of the support committee for Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party of Korea's presidential candidate, appealed for support for Lee by mentioning former President Roh Moo-hyun on the 4th.


At the launch ceremony of the support committee held at the Yeouido Central Party Office that afternoon, former Prime Minister Jeong said, "Just as the Hope Piggy Bank created Roh Moo-hyun, please gather sincerity and heart to make Lee Jae-myung president and establish the 4th Democratic government."


He emphasized, "Please choose Lee Jae-myung for me, and the Democratic Party for us. Lee's Democratic Party will never let go of your hands," adding, "We will work together to eliminate gaps and inequality and build a just country, a healthy and happy Republic of Korea."


Former Prime Minister Jeong said, "The presidential election two months from now is a turning point that will determine the future of the Republic of Korea," and added, "I believe the people will make a wise judgment on whether the Democratic Party will advance toward a great leap into the future with this candidate or retreat to the old past dreaming of conservative vested interests." He also added, "We have already confirmed the public sentiment and signs of change through various opinion polls."



He continued, "The candidate's support committee aims to be one where many citizens actively participate with small donations rather than a few high-value donors," and appealed, "Financial support is important, but at the same time, policy support is also a role the support committee must fulfill. Please join forces through various means to make Lee Jae-myung president and to advance the Republic of Korea that gives dreams and hope together with the president."
