Candidate Baek first stated, "I will provide 300,000 won in basic pension uniformly to seniors in the bottom 70% income bracket."
She further pledged, "Using the National Pension Fund, I will invest a total of 100 trillion won—10 trillion won annually for 10 years—into the public sector, achieving a threefold effect of resolving the jeonse crisis, eliminating waitlists for childcare facilities, creating jobs, and boosting the birth rate."
Additionally, she said, "I will reform the inequitable health insurance premium system by abolishing premium caps and expanding the assessment base to all income levels, establishing insurance premium standards that match income."
Candidate Baek emphasized, "I will immediately write off small long-term overdue debts of 10 million won or less held for over 10 years, reducing the financial burden on ordinary citizens and revitalizing the economy through sound welfare."
