● Oh Se-hoon Receives First-Trial Ruling Invalidating Election Victory... "Political Ruling" vs. "Step Down"

Seong Chi-hun / Deputy Spokesperson, Democratic Party of Korea
"It will not be easy to overturn Oh Se-hoon's first-trial result in the appellate court... The payment of money by a supporter is a fact."
"If a by-election were to be held immediately, it would not be easy for the Democratic Party to win the Seoul mayoral race."

Jung Kwang-jae / Former Spokesperson, People Power Party
"There are concerns that the People Power Party could lose a strong presidential contender... We believe he can be acquitted in the appeal."

Yang Man-hee / SBS Editorial Writer
"Had Oh Se-hoon's first-trial ruling come out before the local elections, the landscape might have changed."
