[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] On the day before the presidential election, Yoon Seok-yeol, the People Power Party's presidential candidate, who visited Daegu, repeatedly appealed for support, saying, "If we entrust the country to them (the Democratic Party of Korea) once again, this country will be ruined."

On the 8th, during a campaign rally at Seomun Market in Daegu, Candidate Yoon stated, "This election is no longer a contest between the People Power Party and the Democratic Party. It is a fight for whether the Republic of Korea lives or dies."

He emphasized, "Security is collapsing, the economy is failing, the future of the youth is gone, and the country is going bankrupt."

On that day, about 1,000 residents gathered at Seomun Market, creating a bustling atmosphere. On the campaign vehicle were Park Dae-chul, head of the campaign headquarters (Jinju Gap, Gyeongnam), Choo Kyung-ho, floor leader deputy (Dalseong-gun, Daegu), and Representative Joo Ho-young (Suseong Gap, Daegu), among others.

Candidate Yoon put all his effort into criticizing the current administration and the Democratic Party. He said, "Look at the Democratic Party government of the past five years. A servant must constantly think about how the master can be happy and what benefits them." He also criticized, "Look at the Democratic Party's governance over the past five years. Did they consider the people's interests? Real estate prices went up, and both jeonse and monthly rents increased, right?"

He then mentioned self-employed business owners and small merchants who suffered from the spread of COVID-19, saying, "Two years ago, Daegu was locked down, right?" and targeted Daegu voters by adding, "They don't even talk about compensation."

He also criticized the current administration's job and tax policies. He said, "The current government has spent 500 trillion won more than the Park Geun-hye administration," but "quality jobs of over 36 hours per week have rather decreased."

Regarding the Democratic Party's security policy, he said, "They are the ones who defended North Korea, saying it had no choice but to develop nuclear weapons and confront us for its survival," and questioned, "Can we entrust national security and command authority to them?"

Finally, he declared, "Gyeongbuk, Daegu, and Seomun Market are the sources of my political energy," and expressed his determination, saying, "I will be the first to cross the finish line with all my might."
