Candidates Make Final Campaign Push
Main Election Starts Tomorrow at 6 AM

With one day left before the Seoul Superintendent of Education by-election, the candidates are putting all their efforts into their final campaigns. Each candidate plans to conclude their last campaign at symbolic locations.

On the morning of the 15th, Jeong Geun-sik, a candidate for Seoul Superintendent of Education, held a meeting with parents in Gwanak-gu, Seoul, providing a free discussion session on innovation schools and slow learners. Jeong previously announced in his campaign pledge that he would establish a 'Learning Diagnosis and Healing Center' to diagnose and address issues such as students' learning difficulties and borderline intelligence. He also emphasized his intention to inherit and develop the innovation schools initiated by former Superintendent Jo Hee-yeon.

Jeong plans to start his street campaign at Seoul National University Station, then proceed through Sillim Station, Isu Station, and Yeongdeungpo Station, concluding his campaign in the afternoon in front of the History Museum at Gwanghwamun. This location is related to his background as a sociologist and his first campaign pledge to establish a historical data center.

Candidate Jo Jeon-hyeok will campaign in the morning at Amsa Station and Nowon Station, then hold his final campaign at Gangnam Station from 7:30 PM. Gangnam District is traditionally known as a 'conservative stronghold' and is also an area densely populated by young people.

Candidate Yoon Ho-sang will begin his campaign in Geumcheon District, pass through Hwagok Station and Euljiro 1-ga Station, and finish his campaign at Myeongdong Cathedral located in Jung District. Yoon’s team explained, "Besides its historical symbolism for our nation, this place represents spiritual and social symbolism for Koreans. It is a kind of ceremony where we recall Cardinal Kim Soo-hwan’s words and make a pledge to love our children wholeheartedly."
