What kind of national integration and conflict resolution do the people want?

Is this something that politicians should solve?

3. The president that the people want is a leader who can revitalize the economy

What are the qualities, abilities, and virtues that the people and the Republic of Korea need in the next president?

A person who does not lose the trust of the people?

4. We are now seeing some prominent figures jump into the election race.

Starting with the Democratic Party of Korea.

What are some of the tasks and challenges the DP must overcome in order to win the election?
