Kang emphasized, "This election is an important choice that will determine Mokpo's future," adding, "It must be an election where candidates compete with policies and vision, not division and slander."

As false information and slanderous comments are spreading on social media and online platforms recently, Kang's campaign has decided to respond by organizing a voluntary, citizen-participation-based online group. 'Kang Blue' plans to focus on a campaign for positive comments and will engage in activities such as spreading content related to policies and vision, responding swiftly to misinformation, and fostering a healthy commenting culture. The group especially stressed that it will be operated on the principle of spreading fact-based and policy-centered messages, rather than slandering rival candidates.

Kang stated, "A single comment or share can change the atmosphere of the region," and pledged, "Through citizen participation, I will create an election of unity and hope, not conflict." He added, "With the task of achieving Mokpo's grand unity and grand transformation ahead, it is necessary to cultivate a culture of mutual respect from the election process itself."

Meanwhile, 'Kang Blue' is open to any citizen who can participate in SNS activities. Content sharing and campaign activities will be conducted through online channels such as KakaoTalk.

In the local political scene, some have analyzed the launch of this supporters group as "a strategy to respond to online public opinion while simultaneously shifting the election frame from slander to policies."
