Song Young-gil, former leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, registered as a candidate for the Seoul mayoral race amid opposition from within the party.
Lawyer Kang Yong-seok, who declared his candidacy for Gyeonggi governor, was unable to participate in the primary as his application for restoration of the people's power was rejected.

Song Young-gil, the former president of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, brought up the 'destiny theory' by registering as a candidate for the Seoul mayor primary.
He said, "If you need a key to winning a local election, it is your destiny as a party leader to not avoid it."
However, internal criticism continued.

Rep. Park Ju-min also entered the race with the 'generation change, era change'.
The Democratic Party decided to hold a new wave and affiliation pledge ceremony of Chairman Kim Dong-yeon, who announced his candidacy for Gyeonggi governor, and complete the affiliation by the 18th.
The People's Power Supreme Council denied the reinstatement requested by lawyer Kang Yong-seok, saying that he would challenge the Gyeonggi governor's primary.

Lawyer Kang said, "This is an unacceptable result," and countered that he had raised the suspicion of sexual abuse by Lee Jun-seok, the representative of People's Power, as CEO Lee's superintendent acted.
A war of nerves between candidates within the party has also begun.
Rep. Kim Eun-hye said, "When former lawmaker Yoo Seung-min was thinking about retiring from politics, he was thinking about the development of Gyeonggi-do." "There are no concessions."
Former Rep. Yoo emphasized, "What is important in this election is the heart of the elected President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol, that is, the people of Gyeonggi-do, not Yoon-shim."
