[Asia Economy Reporters Koo Chae-eun, Kim Young-won] On the 21st, Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party of Korea's presidential candidate, demanded an apology by referring to Yoon's remark that "there is no structural gender equality" during the "20th Presidential Election Candidate Debate" hosted by the National Election Commission.


Lee said, "Gender inequality is a reality, but you said there is no structural gender equality," and asked, "Do you have any intention to apologize for this statement?"



In response, Yoon said, "I have already spoken a lot on this question, so there is no need to answer again." He explained, "I believe that viewing the issue from individual to individual rather than from collective men and collective women can better protect the rights of victims or the vulnerable."
