The day before yesterday Lee Jae-myeong, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, visited the Incheon area and asked for the “judgment of the regime”.
Yesterday, instead of campaigning, I visited the court to watch the trial of “Daejang-dong, Baekhyeon-dong and Seongnam FC”.

Rep. Lee is also scheduled to attend the trial on the 9th, the day before the general election.
Representative Lee repeatedly criticized President Yoon’s medical speech in his YouTube broadcast in which he remotely supports candidates before his appearance at yesterday’s trial, underscoring the regime’s judgment.
[이재명/더불어민주당 대표/유튜브 ‘이재명’ : “윤석열 대통령의 담화를 보니까 역시 반드시 심판해야 되겠다 이 생각이 좀 더 강해졌는데요.”]
After the trial ended, he visited Dongjak-eul, a central area of the Han River Belt, for the sixth time to support Democratic Party candidate Ryu Sam-young, who is running against People Power Party candidate Na Kyung-won .
[이재명/더불어민주당 대표 : “여러분들이 류삼영을 위해서 민주당 승리를 위해서 아니 대한민국 국민들의 주권자 선언, 국민 승리를 위해서 1인 세 표씩만 신경 써주면 반드시 국민이 이긴다.”]
Kim Boo-gyeom, chairman of the Democratic Party’s Standing Election Committee, ran a 400km election race on behalf of Representative Lee, traveling through Gangwon, North Chungcheong Province, North Gyeongsang Province and Daegu.
Representative Lee Jae-myeong, who moved to Jeju last night after completing the trial, will attend the April 3 victims’ memorial ceremony in Jeju today.
After the memorial ceremony, we will move to Gimhae and continue our election campaign in the Nakdong River belt, a hotly contested area.
