By Nam Hyun-woo

With the presidential election just 100 days away, neither ruling Democratic Party of Korea (DPK) candidate Lee Jae-myung nor main opposition People Power Party (PPP) candidate Yoon Seok-youl is taking a noticeable lead.
대통령 선거가 100일 앞으로 다가왔지만 더불어민주당 이재명 후보나 국민의힘 윤석열 후보 중 누구도 뚜렷한 우세를 보이고 있지 않다.


As a growing number of voters have begun describing the election as being about "choosing the less-hated candidate," each of them is grappling with their weaknesses and risks.
다수 유권자가 이번 선거를 ‘덜 싫은 후보를 선택하는' 선거로 묘사하기 시작하자 각 후보는 약점과 위험 요소를 해결하려고 애쓰고 있다.


According to a poll by the Korea Society Opinion Institute released Monday, Yoon was leading the pack with support of 41.8 percent, followed by Lee with 39 percent. However, the 2.8 percentage point gap was within the 3.1 percentage points margin of error for the poll, which surveyed 1,009 people, Nov. 26 and 27.
한국사회여론연구소가 월요일 발표한 여론조사에 따르면 윤 후보가 41.8%로 1위를 달리고 있었고, 이 후보가39%로 뒤를 이었다. 그러나 2.8% 포인트 차이는 11월 26일과 27일 1,009명을 대상으로 한 여론조사의 오차범위 3.1% 포인트 이내다.


A separate poll by Embrain Public, released Sunday, showed that Yoon was sitting in pole position with 38.9 percent, followed by Lee with 36.1 percent ― but this gap was also within the margin of error of 3.1 percentage points. The poll questioned 1,020 people on the same days.
엠브레인 퍼블릭이 일요일에 발표한 별도의 여론조사에서는 윤 후보가 38.9%로 우위에 있는 것으로 나타났고, 이 후보가 36.1%로 뒤를 이었다. 그러나 이 격차도 3.1퍼센트 포인트의 오차범위 안에 있었다. 해당 조사는 1020명을 대상으로 같은 날 실시되었다.


Except for a survey by Realmeter, which said Yoon was ahead of Lee by 9.4 percentage points, most of the latest surveys indicated that Yoon's lead was within the margin of error.
윤 후보가 이 후보보다 9.4퍼센트 포인트 앞서 있다는 리얼미터의 조사를 제외하면 대부분의 최근 여론조사에서 윤씨의 우세는 오차 범위 안에 있는 것으로 나타났다.
