[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party presidential candidate, criticized Yoon Seok-yeol of the People Power Party on the 12th for his remarks about 'investigating the deep-rooted evils of the current government,' saying, "Are you planning to change tomorrow through political revenge?"


On the same day, Lee stated on social media (SNS), "Candidate Yoon still has not apologized for political revenge. Rather, it seems he is further solidifying his intention for political revenge, which is truly deplorable."


He added, "(Candidate Yoon) stuck solely to negativity during yesterday's debate without proposing any solutions to the people's livelihood issues," and criticized, "What can you expect from a candidate who opposes and discards the opposing camp's policies unconditionally and only seeks political revenge?"


He continued, "Candidate Yoon said he would become a 'president who changes tomorrow,'" and wrote, "Political revenge cannot change tomorrow. Don't just brush it off; reflect on and apologize for your remarks about political revenge."



Lee emphasized, "I will not engage in political revenge. No, I don't have the luxury to do such things," and stressed, "We are in a crisis now. The prospect of making a living tomorrow is bleak." He added, "Even if we gather all national capabilities such as talent and policies to overcome the crisis, it would not be enough," and emphasized, "I hope you remember that what is needed now is unity and reconciliation, not revenge and division."
