Lee Jae-myung's approval rating rebounds to 34.8%
President Lee Jae-myung's approval rating has seen a slight rebound, rising to 34.8% after a 10-week decline. According to Realmeter polling, this 1.0 percentage point increase follows a recent press conference where the President addressed key issues including term limits, prosecution, and deployment concerns.
In terms of party support, the Democratic Party has overtaken the People Power Party, with support at 40.2% compared to 38.5%. The gap between the two major parties remains within the margin of error.
During his recent press conference, President Lee explicitly stated he has no intention of seeking constitutional amendments for re-election. He also addressed the controversy surrounding the prosecution of his past cases, requesting that the National Assembly focus on truth-finding rather than granting special prosecutors the power to cancel indictments.
Additionally, the President expressed a commitment to addressing youth issues, noting he is considering the creation of a dedicated organization to manage youth policies to address challenges such as asset formation, marriage, and housing.
