President Lee Jae Myung’s approval rating declines to 35.3% in a Realmeter nationwide poll, following a rebound the prior week. The survey finds his disapproval rating at 62.3%, rising week-on-week, and notes that positive assessments of his performance drop by 2 percentage points. Realmeter says the change reflects growing public concern about the housing market and the broader economy, including a recent stock market downturn.

The poll also cites heightened anxiety tied to North Korea’s threat to resume loudspeaker broadcasts toward the South, as well as controversy over whether the head of the Serious Crime Investigation Agency should attend Cabinet meetings. In a separate survey, support for the ruling Democratic Party of Korea slips slightly to 36%, while the main opposition People Power Party rises to 42.6%. The president’s poll is based on 2,517 adults nationwide, surveyed from last Monday to Friday, with a stated margin of error of 2 percentage points at the 95% confidence level.
