President Lee Jae-myung's job approval rating surpassed 60% for the first time, reaching 62.1%. This marks four consecutive weeks of increases since his inauguration, with analysts attributing the growth to enhanced communication and demonstrated momentum in economic and livelihood sectors. Notably, the marked increase in approval ratings in Seoul led the overall rise. The Democratic Party's support rose to 53.8%, up 3.2 percentage points from the previous week, while the People Power Party fell to 28.8%, dipping below 30% for the first time in over six months. The approval gap between the two parties widened to 25.0 percentage points, an increase of 4.4 percentage points from the previous week.
