Lee Jae-myung Starts Presidential Election?...Yoon and the 'Time Fight' Variable

[Anchor]
In the impeachment scandal triggered by martial law, Democratic Party Chairman Lee Jae-myung is trying to expand his country by emphasizing people's livelihoods and the economy every day.

In fact, there is an interpretation that it is a move for the next presidential election and that "time" is a variable.

Reporter Kim Kyung-soo reports.

At a press conference held a day after the impeachment of Yoon Suk Yeol's president, Lee Jae-myung declined to comment on the question of "early presidential election."

The intention was to focus on how to overcome the ongoing crisis.

[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party leader (15th): I think it's inappropriate to predict a certain outcome and talk about it, so I'll postpone it to the next time.]

However, CEO Lee's move, which is based on people's livelihood and economy, is actually already heading for the presidential election.

A representative example is Lee's direct hosting of the recent discussion on the revision of the commercial law.

It highlighted the aspects of rational mediators and cautious leaders looking for alternatives by listening to both ant investors and management positions.

enters the second term of Lee Jae-myung system', the Democratic Party, which prepared for the presidential election early, is also supporting.

It created a so-called "Monthly Defense Force" with former salaried lawmakers to protect the "glass wallet" of office workers, and launched a "People's Livelihood Economic Recovery Team" to deal with the damage of martial law.

[Park Chan-dae / Floor Leader of the Democratic Party (19th): The already difficult people's livelihood is completely collapsing due to the "12.3 Civil War." / With a sense of mission, we launched the People's Economy Recovery Team.

It is also noteworthy that CEO Lee recently stepped down as the head of the fan cafe 'Jaemyeong's Village'.

It is interpreted as an attempt to expand the center by keeping a distance from the strong fandom.

Through martial law and impeachment, Lee has risen as the unrivaled next presidential candidate, but the variable is the "time fight."

This is because the possibility of a presidential bid can be determined depending on whether representative Lee is convicted of election law or President Yoon's dismissal.

The fact that Lee Hwa-young, a former deputy governor of Gyeonggi Province, was sentenced to heavy punishment in the second trial for suspicion of remittance to North Korea is also a bad news for Lee Jae-myung.
