Even this weekend, the presidential candidates are roaming the scene.

Yes, Candidate Jae-myung Lee’s ‘Mataverse’ is continuing its 3rd week schedule.

This time, the place where Mataverse is navigating is Honam, the traditional garden of the Democratic Party.

Today’s schedule features all generations from the 2030 generation to the 4050 generation.

Candidate Lee first visited a traditional market in Jangheung, Jeollanam-do, and exchanged greetings with merchants and citizens to appeal for support.

In an impromptu speech, he criticized candidate Yoon Seok-yeol of the People’s Power as “incompetent, ignorant, and shaman.”

In a question-and-answer session with reporters after the neighborhood meeting with farmers in Gangjin-gun, Lee Sun-ja, the wife of former President Chun Doo-hwan, apologized on behalf of her husband to the people who suffered today, saying, “Looking back and forth, I don’t know if he apologized or not.”

He further pointed out that “the most problematic part of Mr. Jeon is the so-called coup and massacre that took place during his tenure rather than his actions during his tenure,” and raised his voice over Lee’s apology as “remarks mocking Gwangju citizens and the people until the very end.”

Candidate Lee visits Suncheon Fashion Street and Yeosu Romantic Pocha Street one after another around dinner time.

Here, I am accompanied by my wife, Hye-Kyung Kim.

Together, we plan to focus on capturing the votes of the young generation by 2030, which is considered the ‘casting boat’ of this election.

(Meanwhile, the Democratic Party announced a while ago that it had appointed Oh Young-hoon, the re-elected senior spokesperson for the re-election, as the chief of staff of candidate Lee Jae-myung.)

People’s Power Candidate Yoon Seok-yeol was also with the youth today.

Yes, it is.

Candidate Seok-Yeol Yoon also seems to focus on capturing the hearts of the youth.

Candidate Yoon, who had been struggling with the formation of the predecessor committee, visited the Seoul Arts Center over the weekend.

Here, I enjoyed the works of 20 young artists with the theme of ‘Who am I?’

Candidate Yoon is known to have a special interest in artists, and after looking through the works, he showed interest in the ‘anxiety’ of young people.

Candidate Yoon’s support schedule for young artists today was conducted amid controversy over former lawmaker Kim Seong-tae, who is suspected of his daughter’s preferential hiring of KT.

Ex-Rep. Kim announced on SNS today, two days after being appointed as the head of the general function division of the election committee, that he would resign, saying, “I will go to war with a white coat saying, “I can no longer be a burden due to personal problems.”

Candidate Yoon said he was grateful to former Rep. Kim for his decision and accepted his resignation.

Regarding the apology by Lee Soon-ja, wife of former President Chun Doo-hwan, he left the office, saying he had nothing to say.

So far, it has been reported by the Ministry of Politics. (codealpha@yna.co.kr)
