[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyun-joo] The People Power Party's election campaign headquarters expressed regret on the 13th regarding a photo of presidential candidate Yoon Seok-yeol with his legs up on an empty train seat.

The campaign's public relations team stated, "Due to mild leg cramps from long hours of travel, he asked his aides for understanding and briefly raised his legs," adding, "We regret the lack of attention to detail."

The controversial photo showed Candidate Yoon placing his legs on an empty seat opposite him in a four-person compartment, without removing his shoes. The train in question is the People Power Party's policy promotion train called the 'Yeoljeong Train.'

Democratic Party lawmaker Go Min-jung criticized on her Facebook, saying, "It's embarrassing if anyone sees this."
