During his election campaign, President-elect Yoon Suk-yeol emphasized fairness, common sense and justice. Yoon has vowed to address corruption and irregularities in a stern manner.

[Soundbite] Yoon Suk-yeol(President-elect) : "Corruption, which jeopardizes democracy, must be addressed in a stern way without taking sides to make sure that everyone is equal before the law."

However, the president-elect refrained from commenting immediately on the Daejang-dong land development scandal, an issue he repeatedly brought up during his election campaign.

[Soundbite] Yoon Suk-yeol(President-elect) : "It's kind of inappropriate to talk about the Daejang-dong scandal today. Those problems should be resolved according to law and order."

Regarding North Korea's continuous provocations this year, Yoon says the door to inter-Korean dialogue is always open, but he pledged to take strict measures against Pyongyang's provocative actions.

[Soundbite] Yoon Suk-yeol(President-elect) : "I will take stern measures against Pyongyang's illegal and irrational actions, but I will always leave the door for inter-Korean dialogue open."

The president-elect's spouse, Kim Keon-hee, says her priority is to help the president-elect focus on implementing his duties. She added she might ponder ways to help socially marginalized people and the underprivileged if the right circumstances allow it.
