[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyun-joo, Mokpo=Reporter Kwon Hyun-ji] Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, appealed for support on the 23rd in Mokpo, Jeollanam-do, saying, "I and the People Power Party are closer to the spirit of Kim Dae-jung than Lee Jae-myung's Democratic Party."


On that day, Yoon stated in front of Mokpo Station in Jeollanam-do, "I believe the people who ruined the current Democratic Party are the main figures composing Lee Jae-myung's Democratic Party."


He continued, "We aim to realize the spirit of Kim Dae-jung, who pursued liberal democracy and market economy." Yoon asked, "Have you not seen the diplomacy, security, economy, and politics of the Democratic Party government over the past five years? Is this really the Democratic Party that carries President Kim Dae-jung's DNA?"


Yoon emphasized regional integration sentiment, saying, "In Daegu's Dalseong and Dongseong-ro downtown, I shouted that the prosperity of Honam means the prosperity of Yeongnam. Here in Mokpo, Kim Dae-jung's political hometown, I proclaim to you that the prosperity of Daegu means the prosperity of Mokpo and the entire Republic of Korea."


Regarding the Daejang-dong scandal developed during Lee Jae-myung's tenure as mayor of Seongnam, he also stated, "I believe the Democratic Party that nominates a person who designed, promoted, and approved such a project as mayor is not Kim Dae-jung's Democratic Party."



He added, "This presidential election is not a contest between the People Power Party and the Democratic Party," and continued, "It is a contest between the great people of common-sense Korea and the corrupt Lee Jae-myung's Democratic Party."
