● Song Young-gil and Ko Min-jung Announce Bids

Kim Jun-il / Current Affairs Critic

"The Democratic Party must change to allow young people to challenge freely."

Yoon Hee-suk / Former Senior Spokesperson for the People Power Party

"I hope the Democratic Party will demonstrate 'consensus politics' that acknowledges the opposition in the National Assembly."

Son Seok-min / SBS Editorial Writer

"Support for Kim Min-seok and Jung Chung-rae is still fluctuating. Democratic Party supporters are likely to vote strategically."

● Backlash Against 'Ranked-Choice Voting'

Kim Jun-il / Current Affairs Critic

"The President favors 'ranked-choice voting.' This could be interpreted as a signal regarding Kim Min-seok and Song Young-gil."

Yoon Hee-suk / Former Senior Spokesperson for the People Power Party

"'Ranked-choice voting' is not democratic. Considering a 'second choice' does not fit a party leadership election."
