President Lee Jae-myung's Approval Rating Falls to 44%… Lowest Since Taking Office
According to a recent public opinion poll released by Gallup Korea, the positive assessment of President Lee Jae-myung's job performance was recorded at 44%. This is a 7 percentage point drop compared to three weeks ago and marks the lowest approval rating since President Lee took office.
In this survey, the percentage of respondents who negatively evaluated the President's job performance was 46%. This is the first time that negative assessments have outweighed positive ones, and the gap between the two is analyzed to be within the margin of error.
Various analyses are emerging regarding the cause of the decline in approval ratings. Experts believe that the recent economic situation and public concerns arising during the policy implementation process have been reflected in the approval ratings.
This poll was released on the 14th, and attention is focused on how it will affect the direction of future state affairs. It is expected that the government and the ruling party will examine public sentiment and re-evaluate their policies based on these results.
