“The wind is changing toward the citizens to judge lies.” (Candidate Young-sun Park, press conference on the 6th)
4.7 On the morning of the 6th, a day before the re-election, the Democratic Party Mayor Park Young-seon and Democratic Party mayoral candidate Park Yeong-seon are vying in front of Dongwha Duty Free Shop in Sejong-daero, Jongno-gu, Seoul.
On the last day of the election campaign of Seoul Mayor Park Young-sun and Democratic Party candidate, the strategy was to gather support. On the 6th, Park’s intensive campaign is in the western part of Seoul, where Democrats such as Dongjak, Seodaemun, Eunpyeong, and Yeongdeungpo have traditionally been strong. An official at Candidate Park’s camp explained the campaign strategy on the day, saying, “I feel that the atmosphere has changed since the pre-voting on the site.”
Candidate Park took the first bus No. 6411, known as the’Roh Hoe-chan Bus,’ as the first schedule on this day, and went to work with workers. This is a move to gather the approval ratings of the all-passport class, including the Justice Party, who did not vote for the Seoul Mayor’s by-election. Candidate Park said at the press conference on the 4th, “I hope that people like Congressman Sang-Jung Shim will help.”
The Justice Party said, “You must be mindful. Candidate Park refused, saying, “I don’t deserve the Justice Party”, but Park’s love call continued. Even at a press conference on the 6th, Candidate Park emphasized that “in the field, many members of the Justice Party and past members are helping out a lot.”
4.7 On the morning of the 6th, a day before the re-election, the Democratic Party Mayor Park Young-sun greets citizens who leave Guro-dong and board a bus heading for Gaepo-dong to work at dawn.
The last radio interview medium Park selected was TBS’Kim Eo-jun’s News Factory’. Candidate Park appeared 10 times (6 news factories, 4 Dasveida) only on broadcasts hosted by broadcaster Kim Eo-jun during the party’s primary and election campaign. On the 6th, Candidate Park appealed to the listeners, saying, “Please help” to the listeners, saying, “We will surely win in the situation in my heart.”
Democratic Party lawmaker Sang-ho Woo, who was defeated in the party’s primary, posted a handwritten letter from Candidate Park on the friendly Internet community’Cliang’. Candidate Park wrote in his letter, “The encouragement and support you show without shaking are supporting me firmly,” and “If you vote without fail, you will surely win.” Then, during lunchtime, I communicated with users by reading comments related to elections posted on’Bobae Dream’, another friendly community through YouTube live broadcast.

In the street campaign, lawmakers Nak-yeon Lee, Sang-ho Woo, and Young-ho Kim, and other lawmakers with regional districts in Seoul were mobilized. The core of the speech was the negative of Oh Se-hoon, the power of the people, about the Mayor of Seoul. Candidate Park raised the offensive at Gwanghwamun Plaza, saying, “Candidate Oh only lied throughout the debate yesterday.” Even when he moved to Seodaemun-gu, he criticized that he could not entrust the future of Seoul to such a mayor who provided subsidies to the Parents’ Union and advertised in newspapers that they would not provide free meals.
In particular, during the campaign at Yeouido Station in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, close to the National Assembly, more than 30 members of the National Assembly waved their hands and raised the atmosphere. Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Young-joo, a district of Yeongdeungpo Gap, said, “Do not believe the polls are distorted. If you persuade supporters who did not vote around you and vote together, you will surely win.” Democratic Party lawmaker Seol-hoon said, “Please choose Park Young-sun, who worked well as Minister of SMEs and Startups, away from Candidate Oh, who is habitually lying.” As the assistants and party members, office workers on the way from work, and crowds to watch, the Yeouido Station crossroads once had to walk and stand again.
Candidate Park targeted young people at Hongdae in Seoul and Gyeonguiseon Forest Road in Yeonnam-dong this evening.
His message was an apology to the disappointed youths and an appeal to the Democratic Party to “select an honest candidate.” The last schedule was a meeting with citizens returning home from Gwanghwamun Square, which means “rethinking the spirit of the candlelight, and reflecting on the Democratic Party, who was inadequate with the candlelight spirit” (Candidate Park).
