Power of the People Mayor Oh Se-hoon, Mayor of Seoul, held a press conference on the afternoon of the 19th to accept the ‘100% wireless phone’ proposed by Candidate Chul-soo Ahn of the National Assembly, and then headed to the office of Secretary General Chung Yang-seok for an interview. yunhap news
The power of the people to unify candidates for the Seoul mayor’s by-election opposition Candidate Se-hoon Oh and Candidate Ahn Chul-soo of the Nationalist Party met on the night of the 19th and reaffirmed the principle of ending the unification 25 days before the official election campaign commencement, but a subtle nerve war continued.
Mayor of Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon said, “I propose to Candidate Ahn Chul-soo. I would like to propose that you no longer engage in negotiations outside the negotiation table.”
Candidate Oh said in a post on his Facebook page that day, “Yesterday (19th), the people applauded while watching the process of unification negotiations, but they sent a lot of criticism.” How would you see it?” he said.
Candidate Oh said, “Negotiation is an agreement that we have agreed to proceed quickly, and it is not time for us to blame anyone in the negotiation process. Our job is to be sincere and to remain silent about the negotiations until the end of the negotiations.” Added.

Candidate Ahn Cheol-soo was the first to open the door on the 20th, which is the weekend. Earlier on this day, Candidate Ahn said, “I agree with the (former National Assembly Chairman Kim Hyung-oh’s) statement that’to announce a single candidate on the 23rd at the latest’,” he said, “it doesn’t take much time to practice for public opinion polls.”
Candidate Ahn emphasized on his Facebook page, “We have to enter the investigation from Sunday (21st)” and “the public will not be able to understand the reason why the immediate investigation cannot be carried out.”
At the same time, Candidate Ahn said, “We have requested and waited for the resumption of working-level negotiations (for unification of candidates) from yesterday, but there is no contact yet.”
Candidate Oh and Ahn have been fighting a tug-of-war over the ratio of wired and wireless polls and questionnaires. Eventually, on the day before the official candidate registration deadline, the working-level negotiations ended empty-handed, and there was an incident in which the two candidates each revealed their’concession’ positions.
As a result, the sense of crisis in the opposition circles about whether unification is actually breaking down has increased within the opposition circles. Former CEO Hwang Gyo-an warned, “If we abandon the aspirations of the people and are defeated again due to unification failure, we must keep in mind that the two candidates and both parties will become sinners of history.” If you don’t unify, both should quit politics.”
On the 20th, conservative elder Kim Hyung-oh also stepped forward and urged through Facebook, saying, “Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, that is, Sunday and Monday, conduct a public opinion poll as they conceded, and announce a single candidate on Tuesday the 23rd at the latest.” I did.
Eventually, when the opposition party’s voice warning about responsibility in the event of unification broke, both candidates hurriedly expressed their willingness to resume negotiations, but the detonation still remains.
