It was investigated that both one-on-one virtual battles, 'Lee Jae-myung vs. Yoon Seok-yeol' and 'Lee Nak-yeon vs. Yoon Seok-yeol', were close within the margin of error.

When asked who would vote for the next March presidential election, Gyeonggi Governor Lee Jae-myung 23.2, former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol 21.7, and former Democratic Party leader Lee Nak-yeon 10.6% were found.



The approval ratings of Governor Lee and former President Yoon are within the margin of error.



Hong Joon-pyo 7, former Auditor General Choi Jae-hyeong 3.2, former Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae 2.7, People's Party leader Ahn Cheol-soo 2.5, former lawmaker Yoo Seung-min 2.3%, and other runners such as Shim Sang-jung, Won Hee-ryong and Jeong Se-kyun were below 2%.



Comparing with the SBS survey a month ago, the order of the 'Big 3 runners' remained the same, but the figures all dropped by around 2 percentage points.
