[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Dong-joo] President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol visited Namdaemun Market in Seoul on the 14th and held a meeting with the heads of the merchants' association.


Visiting Namdaemun Market as his first public appearance since being elected, President-elect Yoon said at the meeting with market merchants, "Since this is a place where the livelihood economy is based, if you are struggling, the entire country is struggling," adding, "As the middle class, you must firmly support the national economy and society so that the country has no worries."



During his candidacy last November, President-elect Yoon expressed his commitment to resolving livelihood issues by introducing a 100 trillion won scale 'COVID-19 Emergency Rescue Plan' pledge at a meeting with the Namdaemun Market Merchants' Association.
