Cho Min, a businesswoman and YouTuber who is the daughter of former Rebuilding Korea Party leader Cho Kuk, has personally denied rumors that she is planning to run for a seat in the National Assembly, stating that she is focused on her career as an entrepreneur.
On June 21, Cho posted a screenshot of a related news article on her social media story and wrote, "This is the first time I, the person involved, have heard of my candidacy," adding, "I am having so much fun with my business. I have never even received an offer."
Previously, speculation about the possibility of Cho entering politics had been circulating online. In response, former leader Cho Kuk stated on his social media on June 18, "No one in my family has ever considered my daughter running for the National Assembly," calling the rumors "absurd and false."
The former leader argued, "They are slandering my daughter and the Rebuilding Korea Party by spreading absurd and false information, following attempts to sow division within our camp."
Cho Min also personally denied the rumors of her candidacy, emphasizing that she is currently focused on her business.
In particular, Cho shared another post with the caption, "My goal is not a parliamentary badge, but an APEC card!" along with a screen capture of the eligibility requirements for the APEC Business Travel Card (ABTC).
The APEC Business Travel Card is issued to businesspeople with a certain level of import and export performance, providing convenience for business activities among Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member countries.
Meanwhile, Cho has been active as a businesswoman since launching her cosmetics brand, "Cero Labs," in November 2024.
