Speaking at a campaign rally at Jochiwon Station in Sejong, Jang emphasized, "If we do not take action or go to the polls, nothing will happen."
He expressed concern about the party's momentum, saying, "Every time I hear that the atmosphere for the People Power Party is improving and the election mood is changing, I feel heavier. Losing by one vote or even 1% is more painful and frightening, as it could lead to greater disappointment for us."
Jang criticized the political climate, stating, "Everything is being used politically, and the president is directly intervening in the election by posting on social media even at this moment. If we fail to overcome this barrier, there will be no future for South Korea. In the remaining five days, I urge you to give everything you have to save our country."
He also addressed the recent collapse of the Seosomun overpass, saying, "It is right to thoroughly investigate the cause of this tragic incident where citizens lost their lives and to punish those responsible if there are issues. However, as early voting began today, the police raided Seoul City Hall."
Jang questioned whether this was a coincidence or a pre-planned action, urging voters to judge the situation politically at the polls if they believe there is a political motive behind it.
He further criticized Lee Jae-myung, stating, "On the night the Seosomun overpass collapsed, Lee was at the Jagalchi Market in Busan hosting a sashimi party. This is the same president who was seen on a cooking show during a fire at the National Intelligence Resource Management Agency. Lee has a habit of hosting food shows during disasters."
