Preliminary candidate Ahn Gwangsik stated, "Sejong City has continued to grow physically as the administrative capital of South Korea, but in reality, the education our children receive remains stuck in the past and fails to meet citizens' expectations."

He continued, "That is why Sejong's education is now at a crucial turning point," emphasizing, "In line with the educational reforms of the Lee Jaemyung administration, I will boldly transform education in Sejong as well."

Ahn presented specific action plans, pledging, "I will make Sejong the standard of education in South Korea by focusing on student-centered, future-oriented education," and promising to enhance AI and digital education, improve commuting conditions, and expand customized career education.

He also pledged to establish an 'AI Education Center' to lead the era of digital transformation, and to open specialized middle and high schools in sports and arts to nurture talents beyond academics.

He added, "I will be a superintendent who listens to voices from the field first and takes action the fastest. I will ensure that children in Sejong can confidently compete anywhere in South Korea."
