Former President Yoon Suk-yeol ranked first in the approval rating of the presidential candidate?
[기자]
That’s right.
Now tomorrow, we have just one year left for the 20th presidential election.
When the by-election held on the 7th of next month is over, the political circles will also enter the full-fledged presidential system.
As it is not yet easy to predict the presidency, a poll came out with the approval ratings of the presidential candidates.
This is a poll conducted after former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol resigned, and former Prosecutor General Yoon ranked first.
First, as a result of the fitness survey conducted on the 5th by TBS to the Korea Institute for Social Opinion, the approval rate of former president Yoon Seok-yeol was 32.4%, out of the error range.
Gyeonggi Governor Lee Jae-myung ranked second with 24.1%, followed by Democratic Party leader Lee Nak-yeon with 14.9%.
In addition, in the results of the survey conducted by Munhwa Ilbo to Real Meter for two days from the 6th, former President Yun Suk-yeol was 28.3%, but also ranked first.
Gyeonggi Governor Lee Jae-myung ranked 2nd and 3rd with 22.4% and Nak-yeon Lee 13.8%, respectively.
Former President Yoon Seok-yeol’s approval rating can be seen as a surge since the resignation of the prosecutor general.
In a poll conducted by YTN, the pros and cons of Yoon’s advancement to the politics were also tense, but the conservatives and the middle-class public sentiment, which currently has no influential power, are in the form of more consolidation from the resignation of former President Yun.
In the propaganda of former President Yun, not only the passport, but also Governor Lee Jae-myeong, who is the president of power, and Lee Nak-yeon, who will soon end their term of office, have become more nervous.
Depending on the results of the next month’s by-election and the future moves of President Yun, the presidency is expected to fluctuate even more.

Regarding the alleged speculation of LH, the government decided to set up a joint investigation headquarters to take strict measures, right?
[기자]
That’s right.
This is what Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun revealed today.
In relation to allegations of speculation by LH employees, a joint special investigative headquarters is established in which government agencies such as the National Investigation Headquarters and the National Tax Service participate.
As soon as the government joint investigation team of the Prime Minister’s Office, which is currently conducting the investigation, forwards the results to the National Investigation Headquarters and requests an investigation, the joint special investigation headquarters’ investigation is expected to take place.
Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun explained that the investigation team is expanding and reorganizing because there is a limit to revealing illegal activities such as borrowing or reselling unregistered persons because there is no authority to investigate or investigate the private sector.
Earlier, the party, the government, and Qingdao gathered consensus that there was a need for a forced investigation into the alleged speculation of LH.
Democratic Party leader Nak-yeon Lee promised to establish clear suspicions through forced investigation, the strongest punishment, and to establish countermeasures to prevent recurrence in the shortest time.
[이낙연 / 더불어민주당 대표 : 가족이나 친인척을 포함한 가명·차명 거래에 대해서는 강제수사를 통해서라도 있는 그대로 모든 것을 밝혀내고 현행법이 허용하는 가장 강력한 처벌을 하겠다는 약속의 말씀을….]
House representative Kim Tae-nyeon said he will promptly promote the relevant legislation that imposes fines of three to five times for the unfair real estate speculation profits of public officials.
As one of the important issues to be voted for in the next month’s by-election is the real estate issue, it seems to be the purpose of preventing the separation of public sentiment by taking prompt and decisive actions.
The opposition party agrees with the necessity of a forced investigation, but the subject of the investigation is different.
The power of the people is first calling for an audit by the Auditor and an investigation by the prosecution.
[김종인 / 국민의힘 비상대책위원장 : 정부 나름대로 조사에 임한다고 하는데, 그 조사가 과연 제대로 된 조사가 될지에 대해서 매우 회의적인 반응을 보이고 있습니다. 정부가 검찰로 하여금 엄밀한 수사를 실시할 것을 요구합니다.]
In addition, the party decided to set up its own special investigation committee to investigate the suspicion and discuss whether or not to prosecute the prosecution.
Regarding the disagreement over the subject of the investigation, it seems that the issue of the eligibility of the investigation due to the adjustment of the prosecutor’s and police investigation authority and the difference in perspective of the opposition parties looking at the investigation by the prosecution.
Anyway, ahead of the by-election, both parties are closely watching the aftermath of allegations of LH speculation.
