삼성전자노조 “메가프로젝트 반대 안 해…52시간 특례는 부정적”

The three main candidates in the DP nominee race – Song Young-gil, Chung Rae-kyeong, and Kim Min-seok – each present differing solutions for the major issues at hand. Song Young-gil links the government's housing policy to the decline in President's approval rating, expressing concern over the "special long-term tax exemption (10 billion won limit) for long-term homeowners only."

Chung Rae-kyeong argues that the government should prioritize normalizing land ownership and find permanent solutions for land scarcity. The discrepancy in labor regulation also creates a divide among the candidates. Chung Rae-kyeong advocates for strictly adhering to the 52-hour work limit, while Kim Min-seok suggests that the issue should be discussed and debated in the public sphere.

The issue of the "special 52-hour work limit" in the anti-corruption special investigation law also highlights the candidates' differing perspectives. Song Young-gil supports scrapping the exception, while Chung Rae-kyeong maintains strict compliance, stating that "expanding the workforce is the key." Kim Min-seok leaves the matter open for public discussion.

On the topic of special prosecution immunity, Song Young-gil proposes eliminating the immunity clause, while Chung Rae-kyeong believes it is legally questionable and intends to gather opinions from fellow party members to make a decision. Kim Min-seok strongly opposes special prosecution immunity, arguing that it amounts to violence and barbarism.

The question of alliance and fusion with the "Chung Kyung-hoen" party also sparks disagreement. Kim Min-seok believes that the DP and the Chung Kyung-hoen party need each other's support to maintain their respective party names and policy stances. In contrast, Chung Rae-kyeong is open to cooperation, pledging to pursue unity with the DP after consulting with his fellow party members.
