● Kim Min-seok Announces Bid, Jung Chung-rae Heads to Honam

Seo Yong-ju / Former full-time deputy spokesperson for the Democratic Party of Korea

"It is clear that President Lee feels uncomfortable with Jung Chung-rae."

"Kim Min-seok's announcement to run shows a clear train of thought; he is questioning the responsibility for the local elections."

"Song Young-gil appears to be running to prevent an early lame-duck period for the Lee Jae-myung administration."

"The Democratic Party lacks consideration for the future generation beyond the 86 generation."

Jang Sung-chul / Director of the Gongron Center

"President Lee seems to feel burdened by and hostile toward a party leader who is not in sync with him."

"Jung Chung-rae is keeping his moves for a consecutive term as party leader private, taking an emotional approach."

"The landscape of the national convention is framed as 'a catastrophe in party-government relations unless it is Kim Min-seok,' which favors Kim."

"The reason there is no replacement of the 86 generation in the Democratic Party is due to them being wary of the President."

Son Seok-min / SBS Editorial Writer

"Securing the votes of party members with voting rights is the key point to watch in the Democratic Party's national convention."

"Jung Chung-rae seems to believe he has the upper hand among party members with voting rights; he is currently employing an out-boxing strategy."
