"When We Do Not Give Up on Challenges, a New Spring Will Come"
Lee Jae Myung, former leader of the Democratic Party and current presidential primary candidate, stated on April 20, Easter Sunday, "Jesus endured unbearable suffering and moments of deep despair, yet never lost faith until the end. Because of this, He overcame death and achieved the miracle of resurrection. The path that politics must take is no different."
