[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Boryeong] Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, criticized the Democratic Party on the 28th by shouting that their "specialty is lying" and their "way of thinking is anti-American."

On the afternoon of the same day, during a campaign rally held at the Sokcho Tourism and Fisheries Market in Gangwon Province, Candidate Yoon said, "Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party's presidential candidate, keeps lying on broadcasts," and pointed out, "These people believe that if lies are repeated and brainwashed, the public will believe them."

Candidate Yoon then mentioned the 'Daejang-dong Gate.' He said, "Kim Man-bae and his group took 350 million won to develop Daejang-dong and pocketed 1 trillion won. Does this make any sense?" He added, "Who is the gold medalist of lies in South Korea, telling different lies yesterday, today, and tomorrow? How much do they underestimate the people to nominate someone as the nation's highest decision-maker when the fate of 50 million citizens is at stake? Isn't this disrespecting the people?"

Regarding the supplementary budget worth '14 trillion won,' Candidate Yoon said, "I announced that at least 50 trillion won in finances is needed to compensate self-employed and small business owners who suffered due to the government's COVID-19 quarantine policies. Then they criticized me as 'populism.'" He continued, "They gave 300,000 won, then 500,000 won, and by the end of the year, 1 million won as nationwide disaster relief funds. As the election approached, they lied saying they would provide the 50 trillion won I mentioned, created a 14 trillion won populist budget, and passed it in a midnight rush."

In response, Candidate Yoon said, "Their specialty is lying and deception," and asked, "Knowing the truth, can you really vote for these people?"

He also claimed that the Democratic Party has an 'anti-American' spirit. Candidate Yoon said, "Basically, their way of thinking is anti-American and pro-North Korean," adding, "On the surface, they go to the U.S. and make agreements with the American president, but if you look at their attitudes, remarks, and policies, they are all anti-American."

He then emphasized, "If the People Power Party takes charge of the government with your overwhelming support, we will strengthen security and achieve economic prosperity through excellent cooperation with sensible politicians of the Democratic Party."
