Sogangseok, People Power Party Songpa District Mayor Candidate, Declares One Team with Primary Opponent

Seogangseok, Songpa District Mayor Candidate, Gains Support from Rivals Kang Gamchang and Shin Inkyu, Smoothly Advances to Final Victory

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Seogang-seok, the People Power Party candidate for Songpa District Mayor, has gained the support of his fierce primary rivals, Kang Gam-chang and Shin In-gyu, becoming a united team without any aftereffects and accelerating toward victory in the general election.

On the 3rd, candidate Seogang-seok visited the office of preliminary candidate Kang Gam-chang, followed by a visit to preliminary candidate Shin In-gyu's office on the 4th, receiving their endorsements and becoming a genuine united team with their full support.

As a result, it is expected that facing the incumbent Democratic Party candidate Park Sung-soo on June 1, Seogang-seok will approach the mayoral race with a lighter heart, having taken a step closer to reclaiming the district mayor position thanks to the beautiful endorsements from the camps of these two candidates.

Preliminary candidate Kang Gam-chang said, "The mayoral primary is over, and now all that remains is to unite tightly around the elected candidate and bring back the district mayor," adding, "I will do my utmost to ensure candidate Seo's victory."

Also, preliminary candidate Shin In-gyu stated, "Although the regime change has been achieved, winning the local government change is a matter of life and death," and said, "I will lead the support for candidate Seogang-seok with all my strength to defeat the Democratic Party candidate and reclaim the Songpa District Mayor position."

These two preliminary candidates, Kang Gam-chang and Shin In-gyu, willingly accepted candidate Seogang-seok's proposal to serve as co-chairs of the joint election committee, which is seen by those around them as a great reinforcement.

Candidate Seogang-seok said, "It is rare to see such a primary in Seoul conducted respectfully and with dignity, without any noise or friction," adding, "Especially, becoming a united team immediately after the primary shows the hearts of the two preliminary candidates who demonstrated what democracy is through the election, responding to the wishes of the residents and party members to reclaim local power. We will surely repay this with victory in the June 1 mayoral election."
