Preliminary candidate Baek stated, "Over the past four years, I have shared every moment with the citizens—both in times of joy and sorrow—and have worked to create 'a greater Pocheon, greater happiness.' I am running in the 9th popularly elected Pocheon mayoral election to ensure uninterrupted progress in city administration and to usher in a new era for Pocheon."

He continued, "I have made every effort, sparing no pain, to turn the golden opportunities entrusted to me by the citizens into achievable realities. As a result, Pocheon has now established a virtuous cycle between childcare and the cutting-edge defense industry, opening a new horizon of change and advancement."

In particular, Baek pointed out, "There have been people who, claiming to be members of the ruling party, made extravagant promises as though they could do everything, but ultimately, their words were only aimed at gaining votes. Over the past four years, I have operated Pocheon's city administration with the top priority of improving daily inconveniences and raising the quality of life for everyone. Each year, through communication forums in all 14 towns and districts, we have resolved nearly 1,000 cases of everyday inconvenience. We also opened the doors of previously impenetrable military facilities and strategically utilized them to lay the foundation for Pocheon's transformation into a hub of the advanced defense industry."

He has set "Pride Pocheon" as the new vision for the 9th popularly elected Pocheon city administration, which he will realize together with the citizens. He pledged five key commitments: forming a 'nonpartisan consultative body' for municipal growth and development; enacting a special law addressing 70 years of sacrifice, including the 'return of the 6th Corps site' and attracting the 'GTX-G line'; leveraging the achievement of attracting the Gyeonggi Defense Venture Center to establish an 'advanced defense industry cluster' for the Fourth Industrial Revolution; building Pocheon’s unique 'future specialized education system' linked to advanced defense industries; and developing Pocheon into a 'Northeast Asia core hub' by attracting a peace economic zone that combines advanced industries with international peace tourism.
