Experts cited the removal of uncertainty as the reason for the surge in the approval rating of former President Yun. Lee Jun-ho, CEO of STI, a public opinion poll, said, “With the resignation of the prosecutor general’s position, the uncertainty over whether former President Yun will be politicized is removed, and it seems that a kind of convention effect has been achieved.” Jang Seong-cheol, director of the’Empathy and Controversy Policy Center’, analyzed that “it reflects the expectations of supporters that the regime should be changed through President Yun Yun in a situation where there are no clear competitors in the opposition.”

On that day, Chairman Kim said about the possibility of meeting with former President Yoon, “There is no reason to meet right away. I will meet you later if I have a chance.” Reporter Oh Jong-taek
As former President Yun’s stock price soared, opposition parties expressed anticipation. Kim Jong-in, Chairman of the Emergency Response Committee for the Power of the People, is concerned with the rise of former President Yoon’s approval rating. “From my point of view, former President Yun seems to have captured the’star moment’.”I evaluated it. The’star moment’ is an expression that Chairman Kim became famous as he compared it to the so-called’great power’ in a media interview. In German (Sternstunde) it is said to mean’moment of fate, decisive time’.
“The real queen bee appeared in the opposition,” said Rep. Je-won Jang, “The approval rating is a thug. If the current approval ratings can be maintained, then former president Yun may be able to lead the process of political reform in the future after the re-election.” In the party, the so-called’Kathera Communication’ aiming for the effect of’Yoon Seok-yeol marketing’ is also rampant, such as “Who will soon join the Yoon Seok-yeol camp”, and “Dozens of alumni from Chungam high school (formerly former president Yoon’s high school) move”.
However, there are opinions that the trend of former President Yoon’s approval rating needs to be monitored a little more as there is a year left until the next presidential election. Political critic Park Sang-heon said in a talk with the JoongAng Ilbo that day, “Jeon-Chan Yoon is close to KOSDAQ stocks, which have a relatively larger fluctuation than the KOSPI.” “Because former President Yoon’s political prowess has not yet been verified, the approval rating will likely fluctuate. There are still many mountain peaks he has to cross.”
An official of the people’s strength also told the JoongAng Ilbo, “In the past, when the former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and former Prime Minister Ko Gun came up, they appeared scary.” “It is not meaningful to predict the future of’politician Yoon Seok-yeol’ in advance.”
