💨 Abstract

South Korean politician Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party's presidential candidate, has overcome several obstacles including a knife attack, martial law, and criminal charges to potentially become the next president. A child laborer turned human rights lawyer, Lee is a populist with a focus on economic equality. He leads potential conservative opponents by double digits ahead of the June 3 election. If elected, he would address polarized politics, economic concerns, and negotiate with the U.
