Lee Jae-myung Supports Ryu Sam-young, 'Na Kyung-won Challenger,' Two Days in a Row

Emphasizing the Call for Regime Judgment Day After Day
People Power Party's Nomination is a "Nomination That Disregards the People"

Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, visited Dongjak-gu, Seoul for the second consecutive day to actively support Ryu Sam-young, a Democratic Party candidate and former police officer. Lee explained the reason why they must win in Dongjak-gu, referring to Na Kyung-won, the People Power Party candidate and former lawmaker, as "one of the central figures who created this wrong regime." Na Kyung-won served as a member of the National Assembly for Dongjak-gu from the 17th to the 20th term.

Lee, along with Seo Young-kyo, a Supreme Council member, candidate Ryu, and Baek Seung-ah, co-representative of the Democratic United Front, visited Namseong Sagye Market in Sadang-dong, Dongjak-gu. From the moment he entered the market, he stood behind candidate Ryu Sam-young and delivered a brief support speech. As with other field visits, he emphasized the "judgment of the regime," urging, "On April 10, the day of judgment, please judge the Yoon Seok-yeol administration." He also criticized the People Power Party's nomination process, saying, "The People Power Party's nomination is a pro-Japanese nomination," and fiercely attacked it as "a nomination that disregards the people, an attitude that disrespects the people."

Immediately after the market visit, the on-site press conference further intensified support for candidate Ryu. Lee adjusted the height of the makeshift podium before delivering his support speech. When a reporter asked about the significance of visiting Dongjak for two consecutive days, he replied, "Yesterday (the 12th), I went to attend a trial, but the trial time was changed, so I had about two hours left. At that time, I suddenly came to Dongjak, which is the most important point for the Democratic Party and this election." He added, "Not only today, but whenever I have time, I will come again and again, and finally, we will definitely win in Dongjak-gu."

Regarding candidate Ryu's strengths, he said, "I thought Ryu Sam-young, who is like an incarnation of justice resisting the injustice of this regime, fits well. It is certainly a difficult area, but only Ryu Sam-young can win, so we placed him as the candidate." Candidate Ryu led the 'National Police Chiefs Meeting' in opposition to the Yoon Seok-yeol administration's 2022 plan to establish a 'Police Bureau.'
