Kang stated, "The eastern region was once the largest industrial belt that fed the Republic of Korea, but it has become a declining city. I will revive the eastern region first, turn it into a prosperous metropolitan area with a population of one million, and ensure the success of the metropolitan economic zone."

Previously, Kang pledged to realize a one-million population city in the eastern region by proposing the establishment of a unified medical school in Suncheon, attracting a semiconductor manufacturing plant to Suncheon, creating a carbon-free power industrial complex in the Gwangyang Bay and Yeosu industrial complexes, expanding the industrial and employment base through a second phase of customized public institution relocation, and upgrading the Jeonnam Eastern Headquarters Industrial Office.

Kang emphasized, "As the new integrated mayor will serve alongside President Lee Jaemyung's term, the success of integration is directly tied to the success of the Lee Jaemyung administration. Now, we need someone who can shine a light on President Lee Jaemyung, and I will deliver results with good policies."

He added, "With the practical approach that resolved long-standing issues such as the agreement to relocate the military airport and the development of a multiplex shopping mall, as well as my experience as a three-term National Assembly member and Senior Presidential Secretary for Political Affairs at the Blue House, I will overcome the conflicts of integration."
