올해 의대, 비수도권 학생으로 절반 채운다…역대 최고

In a surprising move, Jecheon Mayor Choi Myung-hee asked Kim Seon-tae, who had already resigned, if he had any intention of returning to politics, sparking curiosity about her motives. On the 27th, Mayor Choi visited Kim Seon-tae, who had resigned as a city council member, at his home in Jecheon, Chungcheong Province, and reportedly asked him, “Do you have any thoughts about coming back?” According to those close to Kim, when Kim expressed his concerns about the current situation in Jecheon, saying “I’m scared,” Mayor Choi responded with the question. The meeting between the two, which lasted about 30 minutes, was initiated by Mayor Choi, who had been seeking to find out Kim’s future plans. Kim had announced his resignation as a city council member on the 14th of last month, citing his inability to continue due to the recent death of his wife and his own health issues. The reason behind Mayor Choi’s question is not explicitly stated, but it is speculated that she may be seeking to utilize Kim’s experience and skills for the upcoming June 1st local elections. Kim’s close associates have expressed their stance, saying, “It seems that the mayor is trying to persuade him to return, but we have not yet decided on a specific course of action.” In response to this development, some Jecheon residents have expressed concerns, stating, “It seems like the mayor is trying to use Kim for her own purposes.” However, others have shown support, saying, “If Kim returns, it could be a positive development for Jecheon.” The situation remains to be seen as to whether Kim will heed Mayor Choi’s suggestion and return to politics.
