Lee Nak-yeon "Announcing Candidacy District in Gwangju on the 10th... Politicians Must Be Nurtured by the Power of Citizens"

Lee Nak-yeon, co-representative of the New Future, will announce his electoral district in Gwangju on the 10th.

On the same day, after the 10th talent recruitment ceremony held at the Central Party Office in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, Lee told reporters, "We plan to hold a victory determination rally at the Kim Dae-jung Convention Center at 3 p.m. on the 10th and announce the electoral district."

Earlier, on the 4th, Lee officially declared his candidacy for the Gwangju general election, saying, "I want to devote everything I have for Gwangju, Jeonnam, and the new future of the Republic of Korea." In political circles, it is considered likely that Lee will run in electoral districts such as Gwangju Seogap or Gwangsan Gap.

Lee appealed for support, saying, "I know very well that the citizens of Gwangju and Jeonnam feel very disappointed and hurt by me," and added, "If the Democratic Party does not nurture good politicians and cuts off their sprouts, now it is time for the power of the citizens to nurture politicians."

Meanwhile, on the same day, New Future recruited Kim Chan-hoon, chairman of Daejeon YMCA, Ko Gwan-cheol, former vice chairman of the Democratic Party's National Disability Committee, and Ahn Pil-yong, former secretary to the mayor of Daejeon, as the 10th batch of recruited talents.
