On the 14th, Yun Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate for People’s Strength, left five letters on his Facebook page: “The main enemy is North Korea.” In response, the Democratic Party’s election committee responded, “The main enemy is an executive,” but deleted it after controversy.
Candidate Yoon posted a post on Facebook saying “the main enemy is North Korea” immediately after North Korea fired two presumed ballistic missiles from the interior of North Pyongan Province on the afternoon of the same day.
In a meeting with reporters after attending the victory resolution meeting of the Gyeongnam Election Committee, he said, “I think the provocation is not something that happened yesterday, but the intention to influence the election.”
He said, “The situation in which our country’s security is under great threat is really incomprehensible to us talking about the declaration of an end to the war and taking a lukewarm response here.”

Spokesperson Ha said, ‘Every soldier knows’, ‘Omniscient 600,000 soldiers point of view’, ‘The 201 Special Forces Brigade sergeant has been discharged from service’, ‘I lived in a special forces unit through all the experiences of the Yeonpyeong Island Cheonan’, ‘I heard the strength, but the look was in the wrong place. They also added hashtags such as ‘.
In Spokesperson Ha’s post, some netizens pointed out, “It is inappropriate for the ruling party politician to describe the main enemy as an executive, not North Korea, on the day of the funeral ceremony for Air Force Major Shim Jeong-min, who died in a fall while on duty.”
As the controversy spread, spokesperson Ha deleted the post.
