Chairman Han bowed deeply and said, "The will of the people is always right. On behalf of our party, which was not elected, I would like to apologize to the people. I will take the will of the people seriously and I myself deeply oppose it."
"I would like to congratulate all the winners, including those from the opposition party. I ask that they conduct politics in accordance with the will of the people," he said, adding, "I would like to thank my fellow citizens who fought so hard with me and supported me."
I would like to express my consolation and gratitude to my beloved fellow party members and to the candidates of our party who were not elected," he said tearfully. Meanwhile, President Yoon said on the same day, "I will humbly accept the will of the people as expressed in the general election.

"We believe that it is the people's evaluation," he said, "and we will take time to reflect on the results." He also said, "Since the opposition party is the majority party, there is a possibility of cooperation and communication with the opposition party.
Regarding "sexuality," he replied, "I guess it can be interpreted that way."
