May 28 will bring former President Park Geun-hye to Gangwon Province, where she is set to campaign for People Power Party gubernatorial candidate Kim Jin-tae.
Wonju Jungang Market and a plaza in front of Lotaria Super in Hoengseong-eup are on her schedule, underscoring a retail-market style stump campaign.
Park already campaigned on May 23 in Daegu for mayoral candidate Choo Kyung-ho, then on May 25 visited Okcheon and Daejeon to back other PPP local election candidates.
