Reform Party candidate promises new future with stronger economy, democratic institutions

Staying on the campaign trail.

Reform Party candidate Lee Jun-seok has pledged to revitalize the economy and rebuild democratic institutions.

Lee was at an industrial complex in the southern city of Yeosu in the wee hours of this Monday sharing plans to address slowing exports to bolster industrial safety standards and to create flexibility in minimum wage.

Later in a speech here in Seoul the forty-year-old contender claimed the snap election is a showdown between "the future and the past integrity and corruption."
