The by-election of the 4/7 mayor of Busan came two days in the future. The 〈Busan Ilbo〉 attempted to explore the character through the words and writings poured out by the opposition representative candidates to help voters choose.
Democratic Party candidate Kim Young-chun (1743 cases) reported in the national media (national, regional and economic journals) for about 10 years in the past (5 years after Lee Myung-bak’s election) and recently (5 years after Park Geun-hye’s impeachment) using the Korea Press Foundation’s Big Cainz A total of 4191 remarks by Candidate Hyung-Jun Park (2448) and the Power of the People were analyzed. The analysis of remarks in the media was the first attempt in the domestic media industry, and it filtered out remarks of overlapping reports or official positions of political parties and governments (spokespersons, etc.).

Candidate Young-Chun Kim mentioned’Busan’ the most (358 times) from the approval of the impeachment bill on December 9, 2016 to March this year. This was followed by’People’ (127 times),’Government’ (108 times),’Election’ and’Region’ (89 times each), and’Democratic Party’ (88 times).
During the same period,’election’ (283 times) appeared most often in Park Hyung-jun’s remarks. ‘Government’ (223 times),’People’ (200 times),’Integration’ (182 times), and’President’ (178 times) followed, and’Busan’ (164 times) was relatively small.
In the past, the difference is even more pronounced. Looking at the remarks reported in the media from December 19, 2007, when former President Lee Myung-bak was elected to December 18, 2012, just before the election of former President Park Geun-hye, Kim’s key word was still’Busan’ (73 times). Candidate Kim moved to Busan in 2012 to run for the district (Busan Jingu Gap) and made a lot of remarks on’Busan’ while serving as the chairman of the Busan Seondae Committee in the same year’s presidential election.
On the other hand, in the mouth of Candidate Park,’President’ and’Government’ (98 times each) rose the most. He served as the chief political officer of the Blue House and social security at MB Government, and worked on national issues such as’Sejong City’ (67 times),’Political’ (33 times),’National Assembly’ (32 times), and’Ministry’ (29 times). Horses made the main. Relatively, mention of’Busan’ (6th episode) was insignificant. After finishing the 17th National Assembly member, it is interpreted that the number of comments on national issues increased and the number of references to Busan decreased as the Blue House moved to the stage of activities.
In particular, Candidate Kim has a long interest in’new airports’ (10th episode) in a statement by the Democratic Party’s Supreme Council on April 1, 2011: I could have a glimpse. In recent years, the frequency has increased even more, making related remarks such as’New Airport’ (60 times),’Gadeokdo Island’ (56 times),’Special Law’ (35 times),’Gadeok New Airport’ (31 times), and’Airport’ (27 times). It has been steadily. As a former Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, he is interested in regional issues related to the maritime and fisheries sector, and words such as’Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries’ (84 times),’Shipping’ (64 times),’Port’ (53 times), and’Ship’ (39 times) Mentioned frequently.
Candidate Park was able to confirm his actions as a key figure in the MB government through key words such as’Blue House’ (25 times) and’Lee Myung-bak’ (23 times). Recently, while appearing in current affairs programs such as’Seoljeon’ and’Strong Enemies’, he often frequented’President’ (178 episodes),’Moon Jae-in’ (90 episodes),’Motherland’ (50 episodes), and’Blue House’ (48 episodes). He poured out criticism of the government and remarks on national issues, including mentioning. On the 4th of last month, which was confirmed as a candidate for the power of the people, “What we saw during the four years of the Moon Jae-in regime was incompetence and hypocrisy, and splitting sides with arrogance, and the foundations of the country are sinking everywhere.”
This analysis was conducted by 〈Busan Ilbo〉 with Adjunct Professor Kwon Oh-sung, Graduate School of Press and Public Relations at Konkuk University, analyzing the morphemes of the two candidates’ speech and extracting the frequency of key words.
