6. Former President Park Geun -hye and Yoon Seok -yeol, who were dismissed three days before the three -day presidential election, began to support the candidate for the presidential election of Kim Moon -soo. This is cautious in the power of the people. Indeed, there is a focus on whether the two ‘presidential president’, who was on the election board, will help consolidate conservatives.
On the 31st of last month, President Park Geun -hye visited Daegu Seomun Market, called the Heart of Conservative, with the people of the people who wore Kim Moon -soo’s sportswear.
On this day, President Park met with the reporters on the field and said, “I haven’t been in Daegu. Time.”
“A few days ago, when Kim Moon -soo was encouraged in Dongseong -ro, I heard that many people wanted to see me,” he said.
President Park will visit Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam on the 2nd day before the presidential election and gather to gather the Yeongnam area, the power garden of the people.
Among them, former President Yoon Seok -yeol appealed for Kim’s support at a dictatorship message at the Rally led by Pastor Jeon Kwang -hoon.
Former President Yoon Dong -ho said in a vice -chairman of Yeouido Research Institute, saying, “We will go to the polls on June 3 to protect the liberal democracy of this country and normalize this country.”
“If you miss the opportunity now, you may have to spend too much time and sacrifice, and it may be impossible to restore liberal democracy and the normal state,” he said. “But if we courageously and work together, we can protect our freedom and sovereignty. It is the only answer to gathering our strength to Kim.”

The people’s strength is cautious, with the strength of the people’s support for the support of the two former presidents who were dismissed by the Constitutional Court’s impeachment decision. This is because the former President Yoon, who provided the cause of the early presidential election, could be a bad news.
Kim Moon -soo, who met with reporters after finishing the campaign on the 1st of the day, asked for a position to complain of support for him in a letter that former President Yoon sent to the conservative group rally the day before.
Instead, Lee Choong -hyung, a spokesman for the People’s Election Commission, said, “I don’t know what the candidates are about a specific rally.”
Kim Yong -tae, chairman of the party’s authority, emphasizes disconnection with former President Yoon.
He said on Facebook on the 1st, “According to the result of the presidential impeachment trial, the party’s adoption of the president’s opposition to impeachment should be invalidated.” “The decision of the National judiciary, such as the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court ruling, is the irreversible judgment that determines the party.”
Kim also posted on Facebook on the 31st of last month and emphasized that “the power of the people today revised the party constitution and prompted the president’s ban on the intervention.
He said, “If the former president was left, but it is virtually a surrender. If the power of the people was not voluntarily dismissed, he tried to revise the party constitution to automatically enter the president.”
However, it is a positive response for former President Park and Lee Myung -bak to support Kim.
Kim is the chairman of the Central Election Committee held in Busan City Hall in Suyeong -gu, Busan on the 2nd, and the former President Park Geun -hye visits PK (Busan, Ulsan, Gyeongnam), and Lee Myung -bak, who is performing a public schedule in Cheonggyecheon, is a “society, and the former president is obliged to integrate the people. “It is desirable for a former president to serve as a willingness to cross the impeachment river and the national integration.”

Other presidential candidates responded critical of the two former presidents’ support for Kim.
Lee Jae -myung, the Democratic Party presidential candidate, met with reporters in Cheongju on the 31st of last month and pointed out that the people’s ‘Avatar’ is the ‘Avatar’ of Yoon Seok -yeol and Jeon Kwang -hoon.
Earlier on the 28th of last month, he met with reporters in Gangnam -gu, Seoul, and said, “Is it not the people who have driven the president’s position by the National Agricultural Corps,” he said.
Lee Jae -myung said, “Park Geun -hye (former president), corruption forces Lee Myung -bak (former president), and national rebel forces Yoon Seok -yeol (former president) gathered three teams. Rebellion, corruption, incompetence.
Lee Joon -seok, a candidate for the reformed party, also said, “The last six months of Korea’s confusion is due to former President Yoon Seok -yeol. At least the political authority of former President Yoon Seok -yeol should not survive.”
In an interview with Channel A Radio Show ‘Political Signal’ on the 2nd, Lee Joon -seok said, “It is a strategy to be conservative (to attract souls).”
He said, “It’s impeachment presidential election, but it’s not a new strategy, but it’s not a new thing, but it’s going to be a good way.”

Time.news Q&A: Can Park Geun-hye and Yoon Seok-yeol Sway the Kim Moon-soo Election? A Political Analysis
Target Keywords: South Korea election, Kim Moon-soo, Park Geun-hye, Yoon Seok-yeol, conservative politics, political influence, impeachment, South Korean politics, election analysis
Time.news: Welcome, everyone, to today’s political deep dive. We’re seeing some captivating developments in the lead-up to the South Korean election, specifically the involvement of former presidents Park Geun-hye and Yoon Seok-yeol in supporting candidate Kim Moon-soo. To unpack this, we’re joined by Dr. Anya Sharma, a Professor of Political Science specializing in East Asian politics. Dr. Sharma, welcome to Time.news.
Dr. Anya Sharma: Thank you for having me.
Time.news: Let’s jump right in. This article highlights Park Geun-hye’s public appearances in Daegu and planned visits to other key regions, while Yoon Seok-yeol delivered a message of support at a rally. what’s the importance of their involvement in the Kim Moon-soo campaign?
Dr. Anya Sharma: Their involvement speaks volumes, but it’s also a calculated risk. Park Geun-hye still holds considerable sway with the conservative base, especially in the yeongnam region – her visits are clearly aimed at energizing that base and drawing them to Kim Moon-soo. Yoon seok-yeol’s endorsement, especially at a rally like the one led by Pastor Jeon Kwang-hoon, attempts to solidify support from strongly conservative and nationalist voters. It’s a direct play to reinforce conventional allegiances.
Time.news: The article mentions that the People Power Party is approaching this with caution. Why the hesitancy, especially considering the potential boost from these endorsements?
Dr. Anya Sharma: The caution stems directly from the circumstances of their departures from office. Both were embroiled in controversy. Park Geun-hye was impeached, and Yoon Seok-yeol’s actions arguably triggered the early election in the first place. Aligning too closely with figures carrying that baggage risks alienating moderate voters and perhaps reminding the public of past scandals. They are walking a tightrope trying to consolidate the conservative vote while avoiding the appearance of embracing what some might perceive as a tarnished legacy.
Time.news: Kim Yong-tae, a leading figure within the People Power Party, even emphasizes a “disconnection” from former President Yoon Seok-yeol. That seems like a strong statement.
Dr. Anya Sharma: It is. Kim Yong-tae’s statement is a clear attempt to distance the party from the more controversial aspects of Yoon Seok-yeol’s legacy. By mentioning the impeachment trial and advocating for invalidating opposition to the impeachment, he’s signaling a desire to move past the internal divisions and controversies that plagued the party. It’s about presenting a unified and forward-looking image.
Time.news: This begs the question: can Park and Yoon actually help Kim Moon-soo win the election? What are the odds?
dr. Anya Sharma: That’s the million-dollar question, isn’t it? Their support has the potential to mobilize the conservative base, particularly older voters and those deeply loyal to the former presidents. However, it’s essential to consider the counter-narrative. Rival candidate Lee jae-myung is actively portraying Kim Moon-soo as a puppet of these “corrupt” and “rebellious” forces. This narrative could resonate with undecided voters and swing the election in the other direction.The effectiveness depends on which narrative gains more traction with the broader electorate.
Time.news: The article quotes challenger Lee joon-seok as saying that Yoon Seok-yeol’s “political authority should not survive.” What dose this tell us about the broader political landscape within South Korea?
Dr. Anya Sharma: Lee Joon-seok’s statement reflects a broader sentiment of disillusionment and a desire for political reform, especially among younger voters. It highlights the deep divisions within the conservative camp itself. He is running on a platform of change and recognizes that associating with figures like Yoon Seok-yeol, who are seen by some as responsible for the recent period of political turmoil, is antithetical to his message. He is betting that the public has a memory and feels that a fresh start is more aligned with a healthy government.
Time.news: Shifting gears slightly, what advice would you offer to our readers who are trying to understand the South Korean political system and these ongoing challenges?
Dr. Anya Sharma: stay informed, diversify your sources, and consider the past context. South Korean politics goes back nearly a century and involves major changes in philosophy and strategy. It is deeply affected by current events involving the United States, China, and North Korea.Don’t rely solely on headlines or soundbites. Dive into the nuances of the political debates.Understand the historical grievances and competing ideologies that shape the actions of these political figures. And most importantly, remember that public opinion is dynamic and can shift rapidly, so pay close attention to polling data and independent analysis.
Time.news: Dr. Sharma, thank you for providing such insightful analysis. It’s certainly given us a lot to think about as we follow the South Korean election.
Dr. Anya Sharma: My pleasure. Thank you for having me.
