South Korean ruling party: ”Will this be a repeat of Venezuela?”... ”Lee Jae Myung's reign will be the road to national ruin”

Na Kyung-won, co-chair of the election strategy committee of the ruling People Power Party, South Korea, said on the 2nd, the day before the presidential election, "The presidential election is a matter of whether to open or close the 'Gate of Hell in Venezuela.'"
"This is a presidential election," he said, calling for support for the ruling party's candidate, Kim Moon-soo. Chairman Na held a press conference at the National Assembly that morning and said, "This is not a matter of whether I live or die, but whether Korea lives or dies.
"Venezuela was once a model country in South America, but it has fallen victim to anti-American populism, economic collapse, judicial control and dictatorship, causing the lives of its people to crumble," Na said.
"The reign of Democratic Party candidate Lee Jae-myung will set Venezuela on the path to ruin," he said.
He continued, "He called the US military in South Korea an 'occupying force' and was involved in the illegal transfer of $8 million (approximately 1.145 billion yen) to North Korea."

He also said, "Candidate Lee is trying to expand his experiment in populism, which involved handing out cash to the whole country, this time," and criticized the president for not agreeing to Lee's campaign pledge of "basic reform."
He also strongly criticized the government's "income" policy. He continued, "Instead of helping people earn money, they are trying to tame them by handing them money," and said, "Venezuela's excessive welfare spending is a hyper
"You will remember that the ruling party brought about inflation and poverty," he explained. "Even if you hate the ruling party and it has made mistakes, this time it will be clean, upstanding, and effective," Na said.
"I ask everyone to vote for candidate Kim, who is capable and will firmly uphold liberal democracy and the rule of law."
