Cho Seung-rae, chief spokesperson for the Democratic Party of Korea, met with reporters after a high-ranking strategy meeting held at the National Assembly on the 6th and said, "Recent opinion polls
"There have been many attempts to mislead public opinion through these methods. There has been discussion about filing charges against the Korea Public Opinion Research Institute for violating Article 108, Section 5 of the Public Offices Election Act in response to their biased opinion polls."
Prior to this, the Korea Public Opinion Research Institute conducted a survey on the 4th and 5th of this month on 1,000 men and women aged 18 and above nationwide on whether they supported President Yoon.
The survey also revealed that 39.6% of respondents said they "support the president." 31% of respondents said they "strongly support" President Yoon, and 9% said they "somewhat support" him.
60% of respondents answered "I don't support them at all" (56%) and "I tend to not support them" (4%). Article 108 of the Public Offices Election Law prohibits the use of vocabulary that "biases a particular political party or candidate" in opinion polls.
"We determined that the questions were designed in a way that would induce a specific response. Looking at the way the questions were developed, we could not see any specific intention behind them," Cho said.
"It's not a question of whether the person has a high or low approval rating, but rather it points out the design process of the questions."
