[Asia Economy Reporters Naju-seok and Park Joon-yi] Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, mentioned the possibility of a relationship with Yoon Seok-yeol, the party's presidential candidate, on the 5th.


On that day, during a meeting with reporters at the party leader's office, Lee said, "I have communicated closely with Kwon Young-se, the newly appointed head of the election campaign headquarters," adding, "We worked together in the 2012 election and have considerable trust. I expect Kwon to do an excellent job in the reorganized campaign headquarters."


Lee stated, "The recent issues regarding the election organization are less about what expectations we have and more about whether we have properly prepared when faced with practical matters. I gave Head Kwon some practice problems to solve," adding, "How he solves these practice problems will determine the level of trust and cooperation we can build going forward."


Regarding the 'practice problems' that seemed like a riddle, Lee did not directly answer reporters' questions about what the practice problems meant.


Lee said, "I believe Candidate Yoon has considerable interest in the 2030 generation and has acknowledged that the current approach to the 2030 demographic has trial and error or mistakes," adding, "Starting today, there will be some changes, and expectations will rise."



Regarding joining the campaign headquarters, he said, "It is a matter of the level of trust and communication in the cooperation system between the party and the campaign headquarters," adding, "It has never been an issue what position one holds when participating in the campaign headquarters." He also said, "My role is more about how much planning space is secured within the election framework rather than whose name is on the organizational chart."
