President Lee Jae Myung said on the 4th, “We do not only side with workers unilaterally,” adding, “I would like to say that the industrial sector is doing its best to find a fair and reasonable balance in adjusting interests between labor and management, just like hiring a former businessman.”

President Lee replied to a comment from a netizen that “the government is not operating labor-management relations from a balanced perspective” through X. President Lee ordered the Minister of Employment and Labor Kim Young-hoon to inspect the so-called “thin width.” Gunwidth refers to a phenomenon in which unions exercise their physical power and demand work. President Lee said, “We need to determine whether the phenomenon occurring at the construction site is illegal or unfair.”

President Lee’s approval rating was at a low of 40 percent. According to a poll conducted by Gallup Korea on 1,001 voters aged 18 or older nationwide from the 1st to the 3rd, President Lee’s approval rating was 40%, down 2 percentage points from last week. The negative rating is 51 percent. Real estate policy (23 percent) was the most common reason for the negative evaluation of President Lee. Many pointed out the issue of personnel management (9%). Gallup pointed out, “The increase in personnel issues seems to be the aftermath of the appointment of six ministers.”

President Lee himself took care of the youth budget and policies, but they had no effect. Lee’s approval rating in his 20s was only 25 percent, and his approval rating in his 30s was only 31 percent. Public sentiment in the Seoul metropolitan area, which is paying keen attention to real estate issues, remained chilly. In Seoul (38%) and Gyeonggi and Incheon (38%), President Lee’s approval rating was below 40%. For more information, visit the website of the Central Election Public Opinion Review Committee.

Meanwhile, President Lee will make a state visit to France from the 6th to the 9th. By attending the ‘Lumière Summit’, which deals with the film and video industries, content and high-tech cooperation will be strengthened.
