I will try to work for greater reconciliation, cooperation and peace in North East Asia based on correct perception of history.

I will never forget the will of the people who believed in me wherever I went during the election campaign.

South Korea's economy is still difficult. I will create a country where nobody worries about putting food on the table.

I believe that it is an unchanging value of democracy that ends cannot justify the means in politics.

I will keep the promise I made to you to open a new era on the Korean peninsula, based on strong security and trust-based diplomacy.

I will open an era of grand national unity.

I couldn't stand back and watch the strong economy that my father envisioned go to ruins.
