6.1 Local Election Hong Joon-pyo, a candidate for People’s Strength, who ran for Daegu mayor, responded, “It’s not the same” when Park Ji-hyeon, chairman of the Democratic Party’s Joint Emergency Response Countermeasures Committee, criticized Hong as “Daegu is not a bone brothel.”
Candidate Hong was interviewed on the 17th in the online community-type youth communication platform ‘Youth’s Dream’, when a supporter asked, “Chairman Park shot Candidate Hong like this. I think it’s ridiculous, what do you think?” answered. The expression ‘it’s not the same’ contains the meaning of ‘not even able to deal with’.
Another supporter asked, “Today, Chairman Park attacked candidate Hong not to worry regarding Daegu, but he has just started politics, but within the Democratic Party, he is a person who has been promoting the creation of ‘Lee Jun-seok of the Democratic Party.’ What do you think?” .
Candidate Hong replied, “What do you mean by that?”
Earlier, Chairman Park said at the election office of the Democratic Party’s Daegu mayor candidate Seo Jae-heon on the same day, “How long is candidate Hong going to be concerned regarding regionalism?
He continued, “I want to make it clear that what Daegu needs now is candidate Seo Jae-heon who will take care of people’s livelihood and will change the future of Daegu.”
