More TV debates needed to give people opportunities to judge candidates
국민들에게 후보자들을 판단할 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 더 많은 TV 토론 필요


The major presidential candidates engaged in a heated discussion about various pending issues during the first TV debate, which took place at a KBS studio Thursday evening. They exchanged views on diverse matters such as real estate, foreign affairs, security, job creation and economic growth during the two-hour debate. The event drew special attention as it was the first debate they have had since being selected as the presidential candidates of their respective parties.
주요 대선주자들은 목요일 저녁 KBS 스튜디오에서 열린 1차 TV토론에서 각종 현안을 놓고 열띤 토론을 벌였다. 이들은 2시간에 걸친 토론에서 부동산, 외교, 안보, 일자리 창출, 경제 성장 등 다양한 문제에 대해 의견을 교환했다. 이번 토론은 각 당의 대선 후보가 선출된 이후 처음 가진 토론회여서 특별한 관심을 끌었다.


It would not be appropriate to say who did the best in this debate. Yoon Suk-yeol of the main opposition People Power Party (PPP) attempted to highlight the alleged misdeeds of Lee Jae-myung of the ruling Democratic Party of Korea (DPK), relating to his supposed role in a massive land development project in Daejang-dong, Seongnam City, near Seoul. By doing so, Yoon also tried to emphasize his merits as the former prosecutor-general.
이번 토론에서 누가 가장 잘했는지를 말하는 것은 적절하지 않을 것이다. 국민의힘 윤석열 후보는 더불어민주당 이재명 후보의 성남시 대장동 대규모 토지개발사업과 관련한 비리 의혹을 부각시키려 했다. 이를 통해 윤 후보는 전직 검찰총장으로서의 장점 또한 강조하려 했다.


In contrast, Lee refrained from any negative attacks while focusing on economic and future-oriented issues, such as housing supply and renewable energy. Ahn Cheol-soo of the People's Party concentrated on offering alternative policies for the national pension system, eliciting agreement from the other candidates for a reform pledge. Sim Sang-jung of the Justice Party criticized Yoon for proposing the additional deployment of a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system in the Seoul metropolitan area, describing the choice as "security populism."
이와 대조적으로, 이재명 후보는 주택 공급과 재생 에너지와 같은 경제 및 미래 지향적인 문제들에 집중하면서 네거티브 대응을 자제했다. 국민의당 안철수 후보는 국민연금에 대한 대안 정책 마련에 주력하면서 다른 후보들로부터 개혁에 대한 공감대를 이끌어냈다. 정의당 심상정 후보는 윤 후보가 사드의 수도권 추가 배치를 제안한 것에 대해 ‘안보 포퓰리즘'이라고 비판했다.
