At least things you can be sure are not the "only decisive cause" of the by-elec
At least things you can be sure are not the "only decisive cause" of the by-elections Democratic Party's crushing defeat.
1. Feminism. You're doomed because you didn't participate enough in the criticism against Park Won-soon? Too few feminists can do that. They are on the opposite side of national power supporters or men in their 20s who broke away from the support of the ruling party. The reason why current feminists' arguments are not respected in Korean politics is that sex scandals in the national power side are overlooked no matter how scandalous they may be.
In order to claim that it is not because of their political orientation but because of the principle of femininity, there should have been at least a similar attack on Park Hyung-joon's use of a woman to manipulate sex scandals to attack his rival in the primary, but he was being too honest with the Democratic Party. In fact, it could be because these people are anti-Democrats, or it could be because the Democratic Party is the only one who gets hurt when they attack them over moral issues. If people attack sex scandals, lawsuits will come back. One of the reasons I can't trust their arguments.
Of course, there is a possibility that this issue affected the moderate voters. However, would the Minjoo Party be able to suffer a crushing defeat just because of the issue, had Cho Joong-dong, prosecutor, and Han Kyung-oh not helped Oh Se-hoon and Park Hyung-joon.
2. Ilbe. Ilbe is starting to dominate the Republic of Korea, and the voting tendency of men in their 20s proves that? It's fair, but it wasn't like that in the last general election, so this is ambiguous.
3. Fatherland. Punishment for defending his country? Except for the last general election, you might argue so, but with 180 seats, it's meaningless. This time, my country has never been a topic.
4. Reform fatigue. Was it because of too much reform or drag on too much to increase reform fatigue? The overwhelming support of the Democratic Party in the general election, which took place months after it declared reform of the prosecution and started confrontation with the prosecution, does that mean it should stop reforming? Moreover, since Minister Choo Mi-ae left office, she has virtually surrendered in confrontation with the prosecution, avoided making radical changes, and some Democrats were smashed in by-elections while only pursuing legislative reform? After the reform began, the general election won by a landslide. A complete defeat in by-elections after shrinking reform. Do you think this is reform fatigue?
5. Real Estate/LH. It's a punishment for failing to prevent LH officials from increasing corruption/real estate prices? If it were true, they would have taken a picture of someone else, not Oh Se-hoon. It has been decades since LH was a financial channel for the upper classes of Korea and LH employees, so why put the responsibility on the government that is most likely to reform it.
6. Pro-Moon / 586 / Lee Jae-myung. The pro-Moon was so strong that it was ruined / 586 / Lee Jae-myung manipulated it all. The only thing to say about pro-Moon is the change of the name of a label that gives to someone who disagrees with him or her in the past, such as Red, Pro-Roh, Pro-North, and 586 words.
7. It's true. Anyway, the Democrats, who don't take it sweetly when citizens say they're going to scold them, are they shamelessly punishing them. ... It's hard to refute, but is it something to be proud of even if it's true? It's just like, "Hey, how old are you?" "Somebody's gonna talk back to you" and "Open your eyes" logic. Should we have accepted this ridiculous demand?
Still, this is true in Korean politics. The power of the government, which raised its buttocks a week before the voting day and prayed for forgiveness, always maintained 80 to 120 seats so as not to completely collapse.

Some of them make sense, and it's natural that they've had some influence, but some of the most confident intellectuals are saying, "No, it's not something else. Is it just this one? This is the only thing that's causing the Democratic Party to collapse. But that's what I've been claiming for years!! I'm the best!!!" It's a bit sad because I don't see any progress at all.

A. Oh Se-hoon and Park Hyung-joon failed to make a proper pledge and let the candidates reverse it over the course of several weeks with one issue, it is certain that the power of the people is not playing the role of a normal political party internally.
B. The biggest reason why Oh Se-hoon and Park Hyung-joon won was, of course, a joint operation between Cho Joong-dong, the prosecution, Han Kyung-oh, and the Justice Party. All the issues that came up that were not well-planned were contradictory. It didn't make sense to attack Park Won-soon because they were misogynistic forces, but the Han Kyung-oh and the Justice Party formed an alliance with this.
Cho Joong-dong + Han Kyung-oh completely ignored verification of Oh Se-hoon and Park Hyung-joon's allegations and blocked them. The Justice Party is annoying to say something, but it didn't have much impact and collapsed due to internal problems.
They attack the ruling party for failing to set the price of real estate, but they are constitutional forces. Oh Se-hoon was elected, and real estate is soaring right away.
I tried everything to make it happen, but I just happened to see that the ridiculous combo was properly caught. Will this be able to be reproduced in the next election.
C. Oh Se-hoon and Park Hyung-joon are betting that the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will not play its role. Why did two people run for office with so much to take? Because they are just people living today? Or because they have already checked the inside of the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit?
