South Korea's President Lee Jae-myung sees approval surge to 65%. According to Korea Gallup's latest national poll of over 1,000 adults, the president's job approval has climbed steadily from 63% in mid-February to its current peak, matching the highest level since taking office in early July. Negative evaluations dropped to 25%. The surge reflects growing support across most demographic groups, with voters in their 40s showing strongest backing at 79%. Economic and livelihood policies drove the positive sentiment at 18%, followed by real estate policy at 16%. Regional variations remain notable, with overwhelming 94% approval in Gwangju and South Jeolla Province, while conservative strongholds like Daegu show lower 49% support. Centrist voters registered 70% approval. The uptick suggests improving public confidence in the administration's economic direction and policy initiatives.
