He continued, "The late Assemblyman Roh Hoe-chan delivered roses to women workers every year on International Women's Day since 2005 as a pledge to resolve women's discrimination, expand women's rights, and realize a culture of gender equality in Korean society," adding, "Since then, the 'Spirit of Roh Hoe-chan's Rose Sharing' has continued."


On the occasion of Women's Day, he presented five major visions to create a 'Gender-Equal Republic of Korea.'


△ Expand and reorganize the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family into the Ministry of Gender Equality △ Enact laws to eliminate the gender wage gap and realize a workplace free from discrimination and with gender equality △ Guarantee gender-equal care and safe workplaces, not just women's roles △ Ensure safe daily life through the three sexual violence laws (introduction of non-consensual rape crime, revision of stalking punishment law, strengthening response to technology-based digital sexual violence), and guarantee safe pregnancy termination and sexual and reproductive health rights △ Establish a social safety net to guarantee equal lives and basic rights for all.



Candidate Park Myung-gi promised, "I will create a 'Gender-Equal Republic of Korea' to advance boldly toward a gender-equal society."
