Democratic Party Mayor Park Young-seon and Democratic Party Mayor of Seoul made a series of policy actions to appease the public sentiment that was raging over real estate issues.
On the 26th, the second day of the 4.7 re-election campaign, candidate Park promised to resolve the issue of the recent tax bomb controversy with the’Seoul Declaration 2’at the campaign site in front of Hyundai Department Store in Sinchon, Seoul. He said, “We will establish a mediation system so that the rate of increase in the publicly announced land price of houses under 900 million won does not exceed the 10% level,” he said. “We will strongly propose and promote the party to reduce the tax burden on the middle class and the common people.”
However, the Democratic Party set the standard for a reduction in property tax for one homeowner last year at an officially announced site of 600 million won. There is a temperature difference between the candidate’s pledge and the party policy. Candidate Park later asked a reporter’s question, “The rate of apartments worth 600 million won to 900 million won is higher than expected because the price of apartments has recently risen.” I thought it would ease the burden if I put a cap on it and let it go up or down gradually.” He added that it also reflected the Corona 19 situation.

He visited the office of the Citizens’ Alliance for Economic Justice in Daehak-ro that afternoon and signed a policy agreement. Gyeongsilryeon is a civic organization that has detected real estate speculation by public officials such as National Assembly members and has requested system improvement. After last year’s general election, as a result of a thorough survey of the current state of housing ownership by members of the National Assembly, 43 Democrats and 41 members of the people’s powers announced that they were multi-homed, which made a huge social impact.
Candidate Park said, “When I passed the Geumsan Separation Act at the time of the first legislator, Gyeongsilryeon provided a lot of support.” “I said. He said, “These days, the people are very angry with the real estate speculation of public officials,” he said. “Kyung Sil-ryeon and Park Young-seon have more work to do in concert than ever before.”
The candidate made real estate policy actions as candidates, while the camp aimed at the relevant pledges of rival candidate Oh Se-hoon, Candidate Power of the People. Spokesman Heo Young said in a commentary, “I am concerned that Candidate Se-hoon Oh’s pledge to ease regulations on private reconstruction is causing another’construction’.”
He said, “If Candidate Oh takes office as the mayor of Seoul, he promises to lift regulations on reconstruction and redevelopment within a week, and lists the names of the neighborhoods.” There were even reports that there was,” he pointed out. “With Candidate Oh’s reckless pledge, the specter of MB New Town is reviving,” he argued. “We must abandon the habit of leading the old wartime shoveling administration. Even now, we must withdraw the promise of real estate’Pyo’ Puulism. .
