According to a public opinion poll released Monday, South Korean President Lee Jae-myung's approval rating has edged down to a new low of 43%, marking the fifth consecutive week of decline.
The survey results show a drop in public confidence in Lee's administration amid multiple economic and political challenges facing the country.
The 43% figure, recorded in the latest poll, reflects a steady downward trend over recent weeks. It is the lowest level since Lee took office, indicating growing pressure on his administration.
Analysts attribute the decline to concerns over the economic situation, internal issues, and the government's recent policy decisions. This continuous drop could affect President Lee Jae-myung's ability to govern the country in the coming period.
