[Asia Economy Reporter Baek Kyunghwan] Woo Sang-ho, the General Headquarters Chief of the Democratic Party of Korea's presidential campaign, expressed confidence in Lee Jae-myung's victory in the presidential election. He cited the absence of last-minute variables as the reason for Lee's very clear upward momentum.

On the 9th, Woo appeared on MBC News Outside and said, "Since it is such a close election, I am watching with anxious feelings about how it will proceed," adding, "I think Lee Jae-myung will win by a very narrow margin."

Woo also described the party atmosphere as "very tense." However, he said, "Because there were no major last-minute variables, Lee Jae-myung's upward trend is very clear, so I am hopeful."

It is reported that Lee is currently waiting at his home. Woo said, "Lee will come out of his house and visit the situation room when the election results become clear," adding, "The time cannot be predicted, but he will visit the situation room when the results become evident." He also appealed to voters who have not yet voted, saying, "I urge citizens who have not voted to make a wise choice through voting for a better Korea to overcome this crisis."

Meanwhile, Woo sent a message to Lee on Facebook in the afternoon, saying "Thank you for your hard work." Woo shared a photo taken with Lee and wrote, "The last dinner during the campaign period together after finishing the rally at Cheonggye Candlelight Plaza yesterday."
