[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Hyun-ji] Kim Eun-hye, a member of the People Power Party, officially announced her candidacy for the Governor of Gyeonggi Province on the 6th, stating, "I will complete the regime change in Gyeonggi Province."

On the same day, Kim held a press conference at the National Assembly in Yeouido, Seoul, saying, "The central regime change must be followed by a local regime change," and declared her candidacy for the June Gyeonggi gubernatorial election, saying, "I will write a drama in Gyeonggi Province." She described this gubernatorial election as "a vote on whether the incompetent and corrupt Democratic Party regime will extend its power in Gyeonggi Province or stop," emphasizing, "We must stop the Democratic Party. This alone can normalize Gyeonggi Province."

She also continued her offensive against former Governor Lee Jae-myung. Kim criticized, "The economic growth rate of Gyeonggi Province was 2.3% in Lee’s second year in office and 1.1% in the third year," adding, "These figures are lower than during the foreign exchange crisis and the global financial crisis." Referring to the Daejang-dong project, she pointed out, "They used political power to turn Gyeonggi Province into a chaotic scene of real estate corruption," calling it "the true face of the Gyeonggi provincial government that was loudly promoted."

Kim promised a differentiated provincial administration from former Governor Lee. She stated, "The solution to the real estate problem is expanding supply, easing loans, and reducing taxes," emphasizing, "I will focus on developing all station areas in Gyeonggi Province to expand convenient transit-oriented housing supply, and achieve a leap forward for Gyeonggi Province through deregulation of redevelopment and reconstruction, urban complex development, and a master plan for the reconstruction of the first-generation new towns." She also pledged fair personnel appointments, attracting leading future industry companies, and expanding transportation infrastructure.

Kim, who served as spokesperson for President-elect Yoon Seok-youl until just before her candidacy, was asked whether she had exchanged opinions with President-elect Yoon. She replied, "My decision was independent of the President-elect’s will," adding, "I told him after deciding to run, and he gave me his blessings." She emphasized, "I decided to run after requests from many party members, and I will conduct a fresh election without regrets."
