Yoon Byung-tae, Mayor of Naju City in Jeollanam-do, expressed his stance ahead of the June 3 local elections, stating, "I will be evaluated based on policies and vision rather than agitation and falsehoods."


On March 14, through his Facebook page, Mayor Yoon wrote, "In the upcoming local elections, I will not cloud citizens' eyes and ears with agitation and falsehoods," and added, "I trust the mature civic awareness of our citizens and will become someone who implements policies and visions solely for the development of Naju and the happiness of its citizens."


Reflecting on the past four years of city administration, Mayor Yoon stated, "Together with the citizens, I have worked tirelessly for the great transformation of Naju," and continued, "By harnessing Naju's potential and possibilities, we have created growth engines to help Naju take a leap forward."


He went on to say, "While it is true that provocative criticism tends to be more amplified in politics, I believe it is not irresponsible attacks but rather policies, vision, and the ability to execute them that truly change citizens' lives," emphasizing, "I will not waste the citizens' time on negative political offensives."


However, he made it clear that he will take a firm stance against the spreading of false information and agitation.


Mayor Yoon asserted, "I will hold those who engage in false agitation and the dissemination of misinformation legally accountable to the very end," and declared, "There will be no compromise whatsoever with dirty politics that cloud citizens' judgment."



He further added, "I will be evaluated based on policies rather than words, and vision rather than criticism," and pledged, "As a reliable mayor who quietly works by the citizens' side, I will fulfill my responsibilities to the very end for the development of my hometown, Naju."
