At the National Assembly on April 15, 2025, Kwon Seong-dong, the floor leader of the People Power Party, stated, “Acting President and Prime Minister Han Duck-soo will not be running in the People Power Party’s presidential primary.”

Kwon added, “Further mentions of potential candidacy will not only fail to boost the primary’s appeal but also hinder the important work of the acting president.”

This statement is interpreted as a move by the party leadership to manage internal speculation, as some within the party have been calling for Han to run.

Kwon also emphasized, “We must clearly recognize the nature of this primary. Former President Yoon Suk-yeol faced legal judgment through impeachment. Now, it is time for Lee Jae-myung, the main culprit of national disruption from the Democratic Party, to face judgment by the people through the election.”

He concluded, “We must overcome the forces of Lee Jae-myung, who would plunge the Republic of Korea into endless political strife and division. Despite our many differences, this is our common mission.”
