After starting his official campaign, candidate Kim Moon-soo traveled through the Yeongnam region.

After three days, he began his schedule in the capital region, which is a key battleground.

He appealed for support by holding the hands of citizens on their way to work at a subway station.

Following the initial phase of solidifying traditional support, candidate Kim has now launched a full-scale expansion of his support base, presenting tailored pledges to capture the votes of various occupation groups.

On Teacher's Day, he met with representatives of teacher organizations and promised to abolish the direct election system for provincial education superintendents, implement a credit system for high schools, and expand free education and childcare services for young children.
