[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] 'AhnLab,' a theme stock for the presidential election, is showing a downward trend amid the breakdown of unification talks between Yoon Seok-ryeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, and Ahn Cheol-soo, the presidential candidate of the People Party.

As of 9:46 a.m. on the 28th, AhnLab is trading at 63,900 KRW, down 7.12% from the previous trading day.

Sunny Electronics, classified as a theme stock for Ahn Cheol-soo, is trading at 2,860 KRW, down 5.30%.

The decline is interpreted as a result of the disappearance of the possibility of unification after candidate Yoon publicly disclosed the breakdown process of unification talks with Ahn Cheol-soo the day before.

Earlier, on the 13th, candidate Ahn proposed unification of opposition candidates through a public opinion poll national primary to candidate Yoon. When the People Power Party showed reluctance, candidate Ahn withdrew the unification proposal on the 20th.

In response, candidate Yoon held an emergency press conference at the party headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul, the day before, stating, “Until this time today, I have sincerely done my best for unification with candidate Ahn Cheol-soo, but candidate Ahn informed me this morning of the breakdown of unification.”
