[Asia Economy Reporter Ki-min Lee] Yeo Young-guk, leader of the Justice Party, expressed on the 7th her "wishes for a speedy recovery" following the assault on Song Young-gil, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea.


Yeo stated on her social media service (SNS) that "I just received news that Song Young-gil, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, was attacked with a blunt weapon during a campaign event," conveying this information.


She further pointed out that "in a democratic society, it is an absolutely intolerable serious crime to inflict violence on another person's body simply because of differing political views."



On the same day, around 12:15 PM, Song was campaigning on the streets of Sinchon, Seoul, when he was attacked by an unidentified man and sustained a head injury.
