Suncheon Youth Support Candidate Oh Hageun at Suncheon University Fountain

[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Oh Ha-geun, the Democratic Party candidate for Suncheon mayor, announced on the 19th that he continues to receive support from the youth, including the 2030 generation.

The youth's declaration of support for candidate Oh Ha-geun took place the day before.

This is the first declaration of support from the youth throughout the Democratic Party's preliminary primary and the process of confirming the Suncheon mayoral candidate.

Candidate Oh's camp is quietly hopeful that the youth's support will serve as a catalyst, leading to a steep rise in support going forward.

Youth supporters praised, "Oh Ha-geun's pledge to build a 1 trillion won tourism economic infrastructure is an absolutely necessary promise for the successful hosting of the 2023 Suncheonman International Garden Expo next year, and it is a tailored pledge perfectly suited to Suncheon's situation, where tourism infrastructure is severely lacking."

Another supporter said, "Oh Ha-geun, who combines youth and strong driving force, is the right person to lead Suncheon's new politics," adding, "He is a capable leader who will put an end to the past division and muddy political fights."

Oh Ha-geun, candidate for Suncheon mayor, responded, "Receiving support from the youth, including the 2030 generation, today makes the fatigue accumulated from election campaigning melt away like snow," and said, "I will gradually resolve the gloom suppressed for two years due to COVID-19 during the prime of life through my youth policies."

He also stated, "I intend to devote all my efforts to realizing policies for the youth, including supplying 10,000 housing units for young people and newlyweds and creating youth jobs," and vowed, "If you trust me, Oh Ha-geun, and entrust me with Suncheon city administration, I will repay you with tangible, felt administration."

Meanwhile, buoyed by the support of the 2030 youth on this day, candidate Oh Ha-geun ranked first in the Yeosu MBC opinion poll results announced on the 18th.
