Hong Joon-pyo "Gukhim, Do Not Blame Hong Joon-pyo or Lee Jun-seok.. It Will Be Difficult to Survive This Time"

[Financial News]  The early voting for the 21st presidential election began at 6 a.m. on the 29th at 3,568 early voting stations nationwide, with former Daegu Mayor Hong Joon-pyo targeting the People Power Party by saying, "It will be difficult to survive this time."

On this day, former Mayor Hong stated on his Facebook, "Do not blame me. Do not blame Lee Jun-seok either. It is because you made the wrong choice," he said.

He criticized, "One person was expelled with absurd slander, and another was pushed out with two fraudulent primaries due to jealousy and envy," adding, "How can a public party do such a thing?"

He continued, "It's all your own doing," and criticized, "Even if it was a party impeached twice, there was a chance to revive, but your selfish desires ruined even that."

He emphasized, "Do not blame anyone and prepare for the upcoming ICE AGE."

Meanwhile, after failing in the party's presidential candidate primary, former Mayor Hong left the party and is staying in Hawaii. Kim Moon-soo, the People Power Party's presidential candidate, sent a special envoy to persuade former Mayor Hong to join the election committee, but former Mayor Hong refused, citing 'no justification.'

Later, former Mayor Hong declared support for the Lee Jun-seok Reform New Party's presidential candidate, saying, "Voting for Lee Jun-seok is not a wasted vote but an investment in the future."

In response, candidate Lee expressed gratitude, saying, "I thank former Mayor Hong for explicitly expressing his support."
