On the 25th, Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate for the People’s Strength, held the position of ‘one-top’ general election chairperson vacant and appointed the general manager level and opened the election countermeasure committee. However, the conflict with Kim Jong-in, who is refusing to serve as the general election chairman, still shows no sign of resolution. There are also criticisms that it contrasts with the Democratic Party of Korea, which feels limited in the existing predecessors as a large number of ‘old boys’ from the political circles are placed in key positions in the senior leadership team, and it is in contrast to the Democratic Party of Korea, which has started hiring outside personnel and young people.

At the party’s Supreme Council meeting on the same day, Candidate Yoon said, “It is difficult for the election campaign to be delayed further, and it is a situation where we have to run while saving every minute and second.” Rep. Ho-Young Joo as the head of the Organizational Headquarters, Seong-Tae Kim as the head of the functional department, Hee-Ryong Won of the former Jeju branch as the head of the policy department, Jun-Seok Lee as the head of the PR and media division, Seong-Dong Kwon as the head of the party affairs support division, and Young-Se Kwon as the head of the special committee were assigned to the six headquarters. done. Except for Lee, who is in his 30s, he is a male politician with an average age of 60, including Chairman Kim Han-gil, who was previously appointed Chairman of the New Era Preparation Committee, and Chairman Kim Byung-joon, who was previously elected.

Although the seat of the general election chairman is vacant, it is said that it is becoming difficult to close the conflict with former Chairman Kim. Former Chairman Kim met with reporters in front of his private office in Gwanghwamun, Seoul on the same day, and said, “I was told that he had given me an ultimatum, but when I saw the news, it was better.” It was like that.” He said, “If it ends today, it will be fine.” Regarding the appointment of Chairman Kim Byung-jun, he said, “I have nothing special to say about such a person,” he said.

Candidate Yoon is also showing a strong attitude. After the highest rank, he said, “I think it would be better not to talk more about Dr. Jong-in Kim.” Candidate Yoon is said to be in the position of ‘there is no overthrow of appointments’. There are also observations that the two sides are continuing to run in parallel and are actually going through the process of breaking up. On that day, the first-elected lawmakers went to visit former Chairman Kim and tried to persuade him to join the election, but put the schedule on hold. Rep. Choi Seung-jae said after the initial election staff meeting, “I thought it would be a bit undesirable to go in a rough atmosphere, so I decided to have a cooler.”

There is also a growing concern within the party about the limited appointments for established politicians. Spokesperson Lim Seung-ho, who was elected through the ‘Speaks Open Recruitment Debate Battle’, said on Facebook, “What kind of freshness and emotion are the names of the people who are on and on the list of the previous captains and the recent formation process?” Candidate Yoon explained this point by saying, “I looked at various age groups, but it happened because I was looking for the right person.”
