Early elections in South Korea are being held amid political tension, with Lee Jae-myung, the liberal candidate, ahead in the polls over conservative Kim Moon Soo. The new president will have to address domestic divisions caused by Yoon's actions, as well as international challenges over US policy and North Korea's nuclear program. The campaign has been marked by personal attacks between candidates, with no clear vision on key issues. Lee promises unity but there are concerns he could use power to suppress his opponents.
