Singer JK Kim Dong-wook directly criticized the shortage of ballots during the the 3rd local elections.

On the 3rd, while observing the the 3rd local elections, JK Kim Dong-wook addressed the ballot shortage incidents that occurred in Seoul and some other areas, stating, "The level of the South Korean Election Commission is terrible," and added, "Things that shouldn't happen even in backward countries are occurring."

He continued, "Seeing the apology letter, it's absurd. No one seems willing to take responsibility or provide any explanation. I believe the South Korean Election Commission needs a special investigation," and pointed out, "I can't even imagine how those who went out to vote today must have felt, facing such a tragic and unrealistic situation."

JK Kim Dong-wook added, "The South Korea that I know and that we all know was not a country like this," and stated, "This is exactly what I call regression."

Previously, according to the Election Commission, as of 6:20 p.m. on the 3rd, ballot shortages occurred at a total of 14 polling stations: 12 in Songpa-gu, Seoul; 1 in Gangnam-gu; and 1 in Gwangjin-gu. These polling stations were distributed in areas such as Garak 2-dong, Jamsil 2-dong, Jamsil 4-dong, Jamsil 7-dong, and Munjeong 2-dong in Songpa-gu; Cheongdam-dong in Gangnam-gu; and Guui 3-dong in Gwangjin-gu.

JK Kim Dong-wook has previously voiced support for President Yoon Suk-yeol and continued to offer sharp criticism of the Lee Jae-myung administration.

Regarding the recent controversy over Starbucks' "the 18th Tank Day" marketing, JK Kim Dong-wook also publicly expressed support by posting a message saying, "If you want to go, go. It's your choice."

Born in 1975, JK Kim Dong-wook is known as a Korean-Canadian despite being active in South Korea. He has directly stated, "I was born in Samyang-dong, Gangbuk-gu, Seoul, attended Gongwon Elementary School, Hage Middle School, and dropped out in the second year of Daejin High School before immigrating to Canada." Consequently, he acquired Canadian citizenship, was exempted from military service obligations, and does not possess voting rights in South Korea.
