[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] Kang Ki-jung, the Democratic Party of Korea's preliminary candidate for mayor of Gwangju Metropolitan City, criticized, saying, "I am concerned that President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol's unbalanced personnel appointments might be pushing Honam towards isolation."


On the 10th, Kang Ki-jung expressed on Facebook, "There is great disappointment among citizens over President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol's first cabinet announcement, which did not include a single person from Honam."


He added, "Although he lost, candidate Lee Jae-myung should not be forgotten for his 'Southern Capital Area' plan, which aimed to develop Honam into a central city for national balanced development."



He also emphasized, "Former President Park Geun-hye, who received fewer votes in Honam than President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol in the past, appointed two Honam figures among 17 ministers, and citizens are closely watching the second round of appointments."
