Incheol Jo, a member of the National Assembly from the Democratic Party of Korea (representing Gwangju Seo-gu Gap), continued his efforts to break down regional barriers by practicing 'solidarity politics' during his visit to Daegu Seo-gu.


On March 4, Assemblyman Jo visited the Daegu Seo-gu District Committee (former chairman Kyusik Choi) and held a joint government briefing session, where he discussed specific cooperation measures for resolving local issues and realizing a truly national political party.


At the event, a range of issues were discussed, including balanced development in the Daegu region, job creation, expansion of transportation infrastructure, improvement of living conditions, and the establishment of a permanent support system by the party for areas outside the capital. Assemblyman Jo listened attentively and responded directly to these concerns.


Assemblyman Jo stated, "I will faithfully serve as a bridge, conveying the voices of the region to the National Assembly," and added, "I will do my utmost to ensure that this solidarity between Daegu and Gwangju leads to tangible legislative results."


He further emphasized the importance of the Gwangju-Daegu alliance, stating, "The stronger the cooperation between Gwangju and Daegu, the sooner balanced development across the Republic of Korea will be achieved."


Assemblyman Jo also delivered a special party membership fee of 2 million won to the Daegu Seo-gu District Committee, expressing his intention to provide practical support to those upholding the values of the Democratic Party under challenging circumstances.


Kyusik Choi, former chairman of the Daegu Seo-gu District Committee, said, "It is realistically difficult to strengthen the base of support in Daegu, but this visit gives us great strength," and requested continued interest and support.



Meanwhile, Assemblyman Jo has been leading the 'Special Committee for the Promotion of a National Political Party,' supporting regions where the party's presence is weak, such as by signing a mutual cooperation agreement (MOU) with the Daegu Seo-gu District Committee last year.
