On this day, more than 1,000 people—including People Power Party National Assembly member Sungwon Kim, local election candidates, supporters, and citizens—gathered to show their support and demonstrate unity toward Park’s bid for re-election.


The ceremony was attended by a large number of people, including Sungwon Kim, the district’s three-term National Assembly member (Dongducheon, Yangju, and Yeoncheon), major party officials, local election candidates for the June 3rd elections, and many citizens, all rallying their support for Park.


In his remarks, candidate Park first highlighted the achievements of his previous term as the incumbent mayor. Park stated, “As a result of my efforts over the past four years, I secured a record-breaking 400.6 billion won in national and provincial funding, providing a strong foundation for regional development.” He added, “As projects directly impacting citizens’ lives, such as the redevelopment of the old downtown and the construction of public rental housing for young people, are now on track, a proven leadership is crucial to see them through to completion.”
