[Asia Economy Reporters Hyunju Lee and Juhee Kang] Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, stated on the 17th, "Buying a 2 billion won apartment in Songpa does not make someone a tycoon," explaining that "people are busy paying taxes with their salaries."


On the same day, at a stage set up near Seokchon Lake in Songpa-gu, Seoul, Yoon said, "(The government) has drastically raised housing prices," adding, "All the taxes are taken away."


He pointed out, "This election is different from the usual elections that come every five years," and criticized, "(The Democratic Party) has gone too far. It is time to drive out the forces that ruin South Korea with outdated ideologies and plunder the people."



He also emphasized, "There are many excellent politicians in the Democratic Party as well," and said, "Our party has also been severely judged by the people several times in the past. For future development, it is necessary to judge mistakes, and that is responsible politics under liberal democracy."
