[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Sumi] Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, expressed his gratitude to actor Park Hyuk-kwon, who publicly supported him, saying, "I believe it stems from the same desire for a better world."

On the 6th, Lee said on his Twitter, "Since it is a judgment made after watching me for a long time and careful consideration, the weight and depth of it seem even greater."

He also said, "Just as one person's courage changes the world, I will live up to the expectations so that the actor's courage is not in vain."

Earlier, Park declared his support for Lee, saying, "If I don't do this, I might regret it immensely later, so I'm timidly showing my face."

Park said, "I have been watching candidate Lee since he was the mayor of Seongnam," and added, "After watching the candidate for a long time and thinking, 'Can he make rational and wise decisions on our behalf? Can he protect our dignity in some position representing us?' the judgment I made was 'Yes.'"
