​
SEOUL, Nov. 1 (Yonhap) -- President Yoon Suk Yeol's approval rating slid to 19 percent, marking its lowest level since he took office in May 2022, a poll showed Friday.
​
The survey, conducted by the polling agency Gallup Korea, showed that the positive assessment of Yoon's performance fell 1 percentage point from the previous week, while his negative assessment reached an all-time high of 72 percent, up 2 percent from a week earlier.
​
This marks the first time Yoon's approval ratings fell below the 20 percent mark in Gallup surveys.
​
Yoon's handling of allegations surrounding first lady Kim Keon Hee, the economy and a lack of communication were cited as reasons for the negative assessment.
​
The first lady has been accused of alleged involvement in a stock manipulation scheme, the receipt of a luxury bag and alleged interference in the candidate nominations of the ruling People Power Party (PPP) ahead of the April general elections.
​
The polling agency said the release of an audio recording earlier this week reportedly between Yoon and Myung Tae-kyun, a self-proclaimed political broker, will likely be reflected in upcoming surveys.
​
On Thursday, the main opposition Democratic Party (DP) played a recording of what it said was a phone call in which Yoon told Myung that he had recommended the ruling party nominate now former lawmaker Kim Young-sun to run in the by-election in the Changwon and Uichang district of South Gyeongsang Province.
​
The recording marks the latest revelation in a growing scandal centering on allegations that Yoon and the first lady conferred with Myung to interfere with the ruling party's candidate nominations ahead of multiple elections.
​
In response to the poll results, presidential chief of staff Chung Jin-suk vowed to "redouble efforts to address any shortcomings."
​
"I know there is much to work on and I apologize as someone who serves closely to the president," Chung said during a parliamentary audit session of the House Steering Committee.
​
In the same survey, the approval ratings of the PPP and the DP both came to 32 percent.
​
The poll was conducted on 1,005 adults from Tuesday to Thursday and had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

"보필하는 사람으로서 송구…부족한 점 채우기 위해 배전의 노력"

(서울=연합뉴스) 안용수 기자 = 정진석 대통령실 비서실장은 1일 윤석열 대통령 지지율이 19%를 기록했다는 한국갤럽 조사 결과에 대해 "높은 지지도가 아니기 때문에 심기일전해서 더 노력하겠다"고 말했다.

정 실장은 이날 국회 운영위에서 더불어민주당 고민정 의원의 관련 질의에 "부족한 점이 많다고 생각하고, 대통령을 지근거리에서 보필하는 사람으로서 송구하다는 말씀도 드린다"면서 이같이 밝혔다.

정 실장은 "(윤 대통령도) 여론조사 결과에 대해서 알고 계신다고 생각한다"며 "반등시키기 위해 노력할 테니 지켜봐 달라. 부족한 점을 채우기 위해 배전의 노력을 기울이겠다"고 강조했다.
