[Asia Economy Reporter Minji Lee] Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, canceled all scheduled events on the 8th due to the possibility of close contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case.


The Democratic Party's campaign press team stated, "The camera director of yesterday's 'Myeongshim Concert' tested positive," adding, "We are currently identifying the range of close contacts, but until it is confirmed who the close contacts are, including candidate Lee Jae-myung, the on-site team must undergo PCR (polymerase chain reaction) testing and remain on standby."



Candidate Lee was scheduled to hold a meeting with environmental officials in Songpa-gu in the morning, followed by a reconstruction policy meeting in Nowon-gu, and one-on-one meetings.
