[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] Kim Dong-yeon, the governor-elect of Gyeonggi Province, said on the 7th, "While campaigning across Gyeonggi Province, I met many people who expressed disappointment with the Democratic Party, but if the party relinquishes vested interests and pursues reform and change, it will be reborn as a party that receives support and love again."

On the morning of the same day, Kim unexpectedly visited the Democratic Party Central Office in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, to thank party officials. Regarding his role, he said, "First, I will take the lead in realizing the values of the Democratic Party in the Gyeonggi provincial government," and promised, "I pledge to implement the ideals and values of the innovative inclusive nation that the Democratic Party pursues, starting from Gyeonggi Province."

He continued, "The values the Democratic Party pursues are not political strife or partisan fights, but focusing on improving the quality of life for the people, especially those who are struggling and the middle and lower classes, and restoring livelihoods in line with the people's expectations," adding, "I will uphold the spirit and values of the innovative inclusive nation in the Gyeonggi provincial government."

Regarding the internal situation of the party, which has been experiencing turmoil after the local election defeat, he said, "The Democratic Party ended military dictatorship in Korean history, laid the foundation for the welfare state, and promoted the value of peaceful coexistence," and added, "Considering our party's tradition and hardships, I believe the party will develop well-thought-out plans for change and reform to deeply reflect on the results of this presidential and local election."
