Together with “Cheon A- Yong-In” (Cheon Halam, Heo Eunah, Kim Yongtae, and Lee Kiin) team blog, he also ran for the National Assembly on 3/8 with the concept of “Innovation”. On the 19th, after meeting with the readers in Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, he met with the press and expressed his opinion on Kim Gi Hyun’s new leadership team. To the question of “What do you think about the analysis that the support rate has decreased after Kim Gi Hyun’s leadership?”, he said, “I experienced that when People Power was closer to the opinions of the people, the support rate went up and when it went back to the old way, the support rate decreased after the Kim Jong-in and Lee Joon-seok system was enacted.” He also said that when it comes to the criticism that the Yoon Seok-yeol government is a “prosecutor’s republic”, he said, “It is the current system of the Republic of Korea that the President has considerable power over personnel, and it is true that he must also bear the corresponding results and responsibility.” He also had a critical opinion about the “Standard Working Hours (80.5 hours on the 7-day basis) that the government is currently promoting, at the dialogue with the readers in Suwon-si the day before. He said to the press, “The labor movement, which has been going on for dozens of years, is meaningful in terms of shortening working hours, and there is significance in raising efficiency and productivity of people, but if it is going to be increased to 69 hours, it seems that more of the capitalists’s thoughts were reflected than the general public.” He also said, “It should be well examined in terms of how it can be abused at the scene and if this will be a forced rather than a choice.” However, about the Korean-Japanese Summit Meeting without Japan’s ‘apology’, he said, “Diplomacy will result in success in the long run, so there is no need for mutual recriminations, and both the ruling party and the opposition party should move carefully when it comes to criticism.” He also said about the Team Blog, “Gogonghangjin (People who think, study, and act sincerely)” which he runs with “Cheon A-Yong-In”, “It is important to offer it in a form that can be read to find out what young conservatives really want, not just to evaluate the current situation.”
