Earlier that morning, President Lee Jae-myung ordered an investigation into the omission of steel reinforcements uncovered during the construction of the Seoul Samseong Station section on the GTX-A line. Jung has consistently claimed that the issue of missing steel reinforcements on the GTX-A line is Oh's responsibility.
Oh stated, "As candidates for Seoul mayor, it is our duty to exchange opinions and arguments regarding the construction halt for the citizens who are waiting for the line to open," and added, "Let us debate what truly serves the best interests of the public."
Oh further emphasized, "Let us prove our competence through a dignified policy debate," and said, "If you want to become mayor of a world-class city like Seoul, you cannot act like a child hiding behind your parents."
