On the same day, during a campaign stop in Jinju, Kim said, "We will definitely develop the aerospace technology and industrial sectors into the world's best.
"If I become president, I will be the president of science and technology," Kim said. "Some people may wonder, 'How much do you know about science and technology?'"
"The man who created the Korean defense industry, from POSCO's steelmaking to automobiles, shipbuilding, and more, was former President Park Chung-hee. President Park was not a scientist or engineer, but he understood the importance of science and technology and became a global leader.
"By focusing on selecting and inviting overseas talent, we will create a Korean nation where people can devote themselves to science and technology and where it is good for their children's education," he said.
"We need to build a nation, and also Jinju, Sacheon and South Gyeongsang Provinces," he said. Referring to the shipyard in Geoje, he said, "Korea's shipbuilding technology is the best in the world. We will continue to develop these areas."
During the visit to the Sacheon Space Agency, Director Yoon Youngbin said, "This year's budget is 964.9 billion won, but if 2 trillion won is invested, we can achieve a faster space program."
"This will make it possible to develop the space," he said, but he responded, "We should support ten times as much." He added, "This is more effective and necessary than any budget execution, and it will open up the future.
"This is a field that will continue to grow," he said. During a visit to Doosan Energy in Changwon, he said, "We are very interested in SMRs (small modular reactors)." As president, Doosan Energy is not just a company.
"I will fully support the company's further growth, not just as a small company, but as a truly global company that will pave the way for Korea's future," Kim said during a campaign stop in Miryang.
"We will boldly and significantly transfer more than half of all licensing authority to local governments," he pledged. For companies that relocate from the capital region to local areas, "we will boldly and significantly reduce inheritance tax, corporate tax, capital gains tax, etc."
He also emphasized, "Priority should be given to students who graduate from elementary, middle and high schools in Miryang so that they can be first in line to enter good medical universities."
With the suspicion of the Daejang-dong development of candidate Lee in mind, Kim said, "Even for such a small project, everyone was arrested, and some people are under investigation.
"He has passed away, and now he is facing a trial himself," he said. He also harshly criticized, "What would happen if we entrusted the Republic of Korea to such a person? It would become completely corrupt."
Kim also said, "Instead of just impeaching the president, they are now also impeaching the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the judges in charge of his trial, and the prosecutors."
"If he impeaches the president, that's a dictatorship. What else is a dictatorship?" he asked. "If this person also serves as president and takes control of the legislative, executive, and judicial branches, then he will be able to directly
Soon it will become a Kim Jong-un dictatorship, a Xi Jinping dictatorship, or a Hitler-like dictatorship."
