Former Minister of Foreign Affairs Park Jin, who had applied for nomination in Gangnam-eul, Seoul, in the April 10 general election, announced on the 20th that he would run for nomination in Seodaemun-eul, Seoul, at the request of the leadership of the party.
Former minister Park said in a notice this morning: “As a four-term senior lawmaker in Seoul who served as minister of foreign affairs in the Yoon Seok-yeol government, I promised to abandon all vested interests and dedicate myself to win the general election and restore Seoul. “Now I will put that promise into practice,” he said.
He said: “It will be a difficult and difficult path, but I will work hard for the development of the Seodaemun region, looking only at the residents,” and added: “I will begin my dedication and challenge with the spirit of being a chosen heir. “I will soon reveal my position on the elections in detail through a press conference,” he said.
Previously, the leadership of the People Power Party had asked former minister Park to run for Seodaemun, a difficult area of the metropolitan area.
People’s Power Party general secretary Jang Dong-hyuk met with reporters at the National Assembly this day and reported former minister Park’s request to run for Seodaemun, saying: “This is a very difficult election, and it is a General election which we have to win as People Power Party, so it is a difficult area for our party.” “I hope you will fight in Seodaemun,” he said, adding: “We gathered opinions on this at the diplomatic committee yesterday (19).”
