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

I will open an era of grand national unity.

I will be the president of the nation who keeps pledges.

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

I will end the history of division and conflict through reconciliation and fairness.

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

In human life, economics precedes politics or culture.
