He also added a message of extension, with the center and conservative camps in mind, saying, “Let’s use our policies and people as much as possible without choosing the camp.” An official from the Democratic Party said, “As revealed in the Democratic Party’s devastating defeat at the time of the Seoul mayor by-election in April last year, Seoul’s people are still in a state of reassurance.”

On the same day, candidate Lee visited a childcare cafe run in Dongjak-gu, Seoul and attended the ‘National Association’ with the theme of a good society to raise children. Candidate Lee at this meeting said, “If the father does not use it, both spouses will suffer losses, so it should be socially natural for fathers to use parental leave.” Then, he said, “It is mandatory to allocate maternity leave and match the (male and female) ratio,” he said.

Candidate Lee boarded at Sook University Station on Line 4 and met citizens while moving to Sangdo Station on Line 7 with the next schedule. Candidate Lee said, “I don’t like it very much, but when I see it (in person), it’s pure and good,” he said, “will you like it from now on?”, and to the voters who introduced that he was from the GED, he said, “I met an alumni of the GED.” expressed Candidate Lee will focus on public welfare and real estate issues during his Seoul schedule. In particular, Candidate Lee will hold a meeting with officials from the Reconstruction Promotion Committee in Nowon-gu, Seoul on the 8th to discuss the easing of regulations related to reconstruction and redevelopment. Candidate Lee said, “After collecting various opinions, we will announce measures to supply real estate soon.”
However, controversy arose over Lee’s appearance on the YouTube channel ‘Dot Face’, which deals with feminism, etc. Responding to criticism from some supporters, Candidate Lee said, “I don’t think it’s appropriate to say, “Let’s cover our ears and not even approach us.”
