Rumors of assassination continue as South Korean presidential candidate Lee Jae-myung gives a speech behind bulletproof glass.

On May 16, South Korea's presidential election is approaching, and rumors continue that Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of Korea, the largest opposition party, is facing assassination threats. Lee Jae-myung's campaign team said on the 16th that it would equip his speeches with bulletproof glass from next week to deal with the "terrorist threat." Voting in South Korea's 21st presidential election is scheduled to be held on June 3, and the campaign for candidates to canvass for votes was officially launched on May 12. According to South Korean media reports, there have been recent rumors that Lee Jae-myung is facing a security threat and that an assassination attempt has been carried out against him. As a result, the Democratic Party of Japan (DPK) has asked the police to step up security for Lee Jae-myung.
