Politically, Cheol-Su An is famous for speaking out. He repeatedly criticized the serious polarization between the rich and the poor in South Korea and called for profound changes in Korean society.

In the face of unfair trade of chaebol such as Samsung, Hyundai and LG, he also bluntly criticized small and medium-sized enterprises, and once protested the government's behavior of sacrificing small and medium-sized enterprises for the interests of large enterprises on behalf of the software industry. He described the relationship between large Korean enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises as follows: "South Korea's economic structure is a zoo structure-Samsung, LG and SK are zoos, and small and medium-sized enterprises can only choose one of them to become animals in the zoo."

In South Korea, Cheol-Su An is a celebrity widely respected by the people, so all political parties hope to recruit him into their own flags. According to Cheol-Su An himself, in 2006, the Grand National Party intended to elect him as the mayor candidate of Seoul, "but I refused". He has also been nominated as a cabinet candidate for many times, but he declined on the grounds of "youth", "junior qualifications" and "professional ability should be cultivated". 20 1 1 On September 2, 2008, Cheol-Su An officially announced that it would independently participate in the Seoul mayoral by-election on 1 20081October 26, and would have a tripartite confrontation with the candidates recommended by the Grand National Party and the Democratic Party respectively. This move shocked Korean politics.

People who support Cheol-Su An are now known as the "third force", including supporters of the opposition party, leftists in Gangnam (the richest city in Seoul) (generally referring to people with high income, high education but left political inclination) and rational conservatives, mainly the middle class aged 20 to 40.

However, just as the "Cheol-Su An Cyclone" struck violently and its influence became increasingly turbulent, Cheol-Su An turned around gorgeously. On September 6th, he announced that he had decided not to participate in the mayoral election, and instead called on his supporters to vote for the fifth candidate, lawyer park geun-hye, the head of the civic group who also ran independently.

In just five days, how quickly Cheol-Su An changed from running for election to withdrawing from the election. South Korean media generally believe that the announcement of running for mayor of Seoul is just a tentative measure for Cheol-Su An to test his support among voters. In a few days, he occupied an absolute advantage, and Cheol-Su An further sprouted the idea of giving up this year's mayoral election and running for the presidency directly at the end of next year.

In this way, the mayoral election in Cheol-Su An, which had a good chance of winning, has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it has become a new situation of "Anpupei" ("Park Won soon chooses the mayor and Cheol-Su An chooses the president"), so that the presidential election next year will start earlier than this year. Cheol-Su An's sudden withdrawal from the election has made another "summit showdown" the focus, that is, the confrontation between Cheol-Su An and park geun-hye, the candidate of the Grand National Party and the daughter of former President park chung-hee, in next year's presidential election, and park chung-hee is far ahead in the polls of presidential candidates.

According to a public opinion survey conducted by South Korea's Central Daily News on September 8th, the support rate of possible presidential candidates at the end of next year is: park geun-hye (Grand National Party) 43.6%, Hak-Kyu Sohn (Democratic Party) 13.9%, and Cheol-Su An (without party affiliation) 38.3%.

Cheol-Su An's support rate is comparable to that of the Grand National Party's park geun-hye, who is supported by more voters in their twenties and forties, while park geun-hye is more popular with voters over 50. To some extent, next year's presidential election may turn into a contest between park geun-hye (old politics) and Cheol-Su An (new politics). South Korean public opinion generally believes that Cheol-Su An is a "new" political figure that people yearn for and has enough political potential to become a strong presidential candidate.

Psychologically, Korean nationals hate the unchanging political differentiation of society into progress and conservatism, as well as the ruling party and the opposition party, hoping for a "third force." Independent voters gathered under the banner of "No North Korea, No Wild" held high by Cheol-Su An. More importantly, the "Cheol-Su An whirlwind" has brought great impact to the existing party political system in South Korea. A candidate who has no political experience can overwhelm the candidates of the Grand National Party and the Democratic Party and gain overwhelming support rate, which shows that the sense of crisis of "going to extinction without a complete makeover" has occupied an important position in the hearts of Koreans.

However, Cheol-Su An has a brand-new image that existing Korean politicians lack. At present, he has as much popularity and support groups as the existing presidential election candidates, especially the neutral group and the younger generation who are tired of political struggle. After winning the position of mayor candidate for Seoul for park geun-hye, he may get a high praise that can sacrifice his immediate interests and foresight.

Of course, Cheol-Su An's weaknesses-lack of political experience and lack of political party support behind him-are also obvious.

Korean society has always been extremely strict with the moral requirements of politicians. Senior officials at the ministerial level, especially those running for Congress and President, have to go through a strict "congressional hearing" before. Members of parliament will ask questions about military service, paying taxes, whether academic qualifications are falsified, and whether published papers are plagiarized. However, there is no Olympic aid organized by a political party in Angola as an "election machine". Once you enter the election, your endurance in the later period is still unknown. South Korea is a country with great ideological differences between different generations. Relatively speaking, young people under 40 tend to be progressive, while middle-aged and elderly people tend to be conservative. According to the experience of previous elections, the voting rate of young people is low, and the voting rate of middle-aged and elderly people is high.

In recent years, the turnout rate of various general elections in South Korea has been hovering between 50% and 60%. If young people vote enthusiastically, it will be very beneficial to the progressive camp. Therefore, how to get young people to vote has become an important weight in the election.

At present, most of the polls conducted by Korean media still consult voters by telephone, but in fact, it is difficult to reflect the true situation of public opinion, especially the willingness of young people to vote. With the advent of the digital age, the emergence of social network services such as mobile phone, Internet and Weibo has made the traditional polling methods lose credibility to a considerable extent.

At present, there are about 700,000 to 800,000 people using social networks in Korea, most of whom are young people. It is speculated that Weibo can influence about 4 million to 7 million people in South Korea. For South Korea, with a population of less than 50 million and voters of less than 40 million, its influence on the election should never be underestimated.

Cheol-Su An, Dean of the Graduate School of Comprehensive Science and Technology of Seoul National University, also has a unique way to approach voters, especially young voters, namely "Youth Concert".

Since May of 20 1 1, Cheol-Su An has held "Youth Concerts" in 25 regions of the country, taking the form of talk shows, independent band performances and real-time conversations on social networks, attracting thousands of listeners each time, which is a way of communication between grassroots and netizens.

Cheol-Su An's first concert at Kyung Hee University attracted more than 7,000 students. Celebrities from all walks of life were invited to participate, and those who did not arrive at the scene also asked questions in real time through Twitter. Cheol-Su An confirmed the people's desire for change through this "concert". Cheol-Su An, a South Korean Congressman without party affiliation, will announce the establishment of a new party on October 28th, 20 1 13, and will personally express his position on the issue of grouping political forces.

Some people in South Korean political circles believe that Cheol-Su An may not mention the specific time and method of party building that day, but it is an established fact. Considering the candidate registration schedule for the local elections on June 4th next year, Cheol-Su An is likely to complete the Party building before February next year. 20 15 12 13, Cheol-Su An, the former leader of the New Political Democracy Coalition, the largest opposition party in South Korea, held a press conference and announced his formal resignation from the party.
