, “(Seoul=Yonhap News) Kim Chi-yeon and Kye Seung-hyun = On the 13th, the eve of Chuseok holiday, both ruling and opposition parties met travelers heading home to capture public sentiment before Chuseok.”,
,
, ‘ The People Power Party went to Seoul Station where KTX trains depart for the Yeongnam region, a stronghold of the opposition, to greet citizens.’,
,
, ‘ Conversely, the Democratic Party and the Jo Gukhyeonginn Party met travelers heading to Honam, the heartland of the opposition, at Yongsan Station.’,
,
, ‘ Particularly, amidst heightened public interest in recent medical crisis, leaders of both ruling and opposition parties drew attention by preparing messages seemingly mindful of this issue.’,
,
, ” The flow of public opinion is being closely watched as the discussions during the holiday gatherings could inevitably influence the power struggle in the regular session of the National Assembly.”,
,
, ‘ Han Dong-hoon, the leader of the People Power Party, conveyed in brochures distributed to citizens at Seoul Station, “We will find solutions to unravel the tangled thread at the eye level of the people.”‘,
,
, ‘ This declaration can also be seen as a pledge to find a solution as the ruling party leader amidst the difficulties faced in forming a bipartisan body for legislative discussions to prevent medical chaos.’,
,
, ‘ Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung, after greeting travelers at Yongsan Station, stated, “The situation of our citizens is very difficult, and there will be many inconveniences. The Democratic Party will also do its best.”‘,
,
, ” The shoulder straps worn by Lee and other Democratic Party leaders were emblazoned with ‘Restoration of Public Health and Livelihood,’ a message that can be interpreted as considerations for the medical crisis.”,
,
, ‘ It is also noteworthy that both ruling and opposition party leaders focused on actions related to public livelihoods rather than political disputes.’,
,
, ” The leadership of the People Power Party visited the Sangdo Children’s Welfare Complex in Gwanak-gu, Seoul, to deliver lunch boxes to undernourished children. While Choo Kyung-ho, the party’s floor leader, visited ‘House of Stars’ in Itaewon, an indoor memorial hall for the victims of the ferry disaster, to comfort the bereaved families.”,
,
, ‘ Meanwhile, the Democratic Party leadership showed restraint in their remarks at the holiday greetings site. Lee stated, “I hope that families will come together this Chuseok, share stories hand in hand, and enjoy delicious food.”‘,
,
, ” In contrast, the Jo Gukhyeonginn Party conveyed a clear message of ‘impeachment.'”,
,
, ” Jo and party leaders met citizens wearing shoulder straps inscribed with ‘We will raise the flag of impeachment.'”,
,
, ‘ Jo stated, “The people are facing difficult situations in their livelihoods and politics is causing much anger and disappointment. The Jo Gukhyeonginn Party will carry out our duties.”‘,
