One of the biggest characteristics of this election is the phenomenon of 'gender concentration' among young voters.
As a result of exit polls from three terrestrial broadcasters including SBS, 58.7% of men in their 20s and younger supported Yoon Seok-yeol, while

58% of women in their 20s and younger chose Democratic Party candidate Lee Jae-myung.
[Jang Yoon-jung (Female in her 20s): I don't think it should be too biased to one side.

It was the same in my 30s.
More than half of men in their 30s supported Yoon-elect with 52.8%, and 49.7% of women in their 30s, almost half of bedbugs, chose this candidate.
It is criticized that the so-called 'gender confrontation pattern', which has become more pronounced like this, is the result of the politicians taking advantage of the election rather than resolving the conflict.
President-elect Yoon poured out promises aimed at men in their 20s and 30s, such as abolishing the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and strengthening punishment for false accusations.

Against this, Candidate Lee also focused on targeting female voters.

How to resolve the gender conflict among the younger generation, which became more inflamed during the election period, became a homework for President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol.
