At the joint speech of the candidates for the Democratic Party of Korea’s Chungnam regional party leader and supreme committee members held at the Chungnam Transportation Training Center in Gongju-si, Chungnam on the morning of the 28th, Kim Ji-soo, Kim Du-kwan, and Lee Jae-myung, the party leader candidates, are shaking hands and greeting each other. 2024.7.28 News 1

“A small number of hard-line ‘daughters of reform’ within the party have taken over our Democratic Party.”

Kim Du-kwan, the candidate for the Democratic Party of Korea’s representative in the national convention, poured out his determination to the staunch supporters of candidate Lee Jae-myung at a joint speech in Busan on the 27th. Boos and shouts erupted from the audience, but candidate Kim paid no attention. At a joint speech in Chungcheongbuk-do on the 28th, he raised the level of his speech even further, saying, “Isn’t this the Democratic Party that can’t accept that level of opposition? How is that different from the old days when we had to maintain the Yushin regime because we had to confront North Korea?”

Regarding this, the candidate said, “A political party is basically a place where people with different thoughts gather. If I have the strength, let’s write at least one more comment,” but the supreme council candidates targeted candidate Kim’s remarks. Candidate Jeong Bong-ju demanded at the Chungnam joint speech on the 28th, “Candidate Kim made a divisive remark. Please retract the remark and apologize,” and candidate Kim Byeong-ju also said at the Chungbuk joint speech, “(Candidate Kim Du-kwan’s remark) is an insult to enthusiastic party members.” Candidate Kim Du-kwan’s side is taking the position that there will be no retraction or apology.

As of this day, the cumulative vote rate for this candidate in the party leadership primary is 90.41%, while that for Kim Du-kwan is only 8.36%, so a landslide victory for this candidate is expected. On the other hand, in the Supreme Council primary, there is a fierce competition between Jeong Bong-ju, the only non-parliamentary candidate among the eight, and Kim Min-seok, who is called “Lee Jae-myung’s running mate.”

Candidate Kim Min-seok recorded 17.16% of the votes as of this day. He is in second place after candidate Jeong (19.03%), but the gap, which had been more than 9% points as of the 21st, has narrowed to 1.87% points. There is an interpretation that the gap narrowed as this candidate gathered his ‘mindfulness’ by saying, “Why aren’t there so many votes for Assemblyman Kim Min-seok?” after the Incheon joint speech on the 20th.
