Widening economic disparities, declining fertility rates, people disappointed in the uncertain future of the country

The news that the Busan branch of the Korean trade union has rebelled and issued a statement of support to Yoon Seok-yeol, a candidate for the conservative political party “People Power Party,” was reported in the Chosun Ilbo on February 9. .. The day before, the Korean Trade Union Confederation officially supported Lee Jae-myung, the ruling Democratic Party of Korea, and it is noted that the Busan branch took a conflicting position.
Representatives and union members of the Busan branch said, “We are worried about the crisis in South Korea and aim for a change of power with Yoon to recover the lost five years of South Korea. The Bun administration lacks justice, justice, and common sense. . Only contradictory policies are outbursts. “
Lee Jae-myung seemed to have an advantage in the South Korean presidential election, which had one month left until the polling date, but he does not know what will happen until the end. Did it become clear that democracy would be jeopardized if Lee Jae-myung came to power?
In January, Lee Jae-myung’s message to the people said, “A world that helps the weak and divides the strong. We will work with the people and move forward strongly toward a world of harmony.” However, some conservative youths whistle that “the world that divides the strong” means communism.
Chung Yong-jin, the vice chairman of the Korean conglomerate Shinsegae Group, which operates department stores, mentioned on his Instagram that it was “destructive”, and it became a controversy when it went up in flames.
What is strange is that the stock prices of the Shinsegae Group and its affiliated companies have fallen due to the “destructive” controversy, and there have been calls for a boycotts of Japanese products against the Shinsegae Group. Instagram then deleted the post as a “guideline violation.” If you oppose communism, SNS will be deleted.
