Lee Yong-taek, a preliminary candidate for the Ka electoral district of the Suwon City Council (Democratic Party; Maegyo, Maesan, Godeung, Hwaseo 1 and 2 dong), is a former member of the 7th Suwon City Council (2002–2006) and is running for a seat on the 9th City Council in this local election.

Taking pride in his legislative achievements, such as the creation of a car-free themed street in front of Suwon Station, he said, "I have engaged in much reflection and deliberation, thinking of the past four years as time to communicate with citizens and consider neighborhood grievances."

The preliminary candidate declared his candidacy, saying, "The reality is that administrative affairs increasingly run counter to citizens' opinions, and the will of the citizens is not being properly conveyed," adding, "I decided to run in order to serve as a bridge between the city and its citizens to reduce grievances."

Citing the relocation of the airfield as the region's biggest pending issue, he stressed that it is now time to present an alternative that can relocate the airfield while maintaining a strong national defense, and pledged that he would propose a solution for this in the City Council.

Along with this, he proposed easing the parking shortage and parking problems through the installation of free public parking lots. The preliminary candidate expressed the view that "it is not desirable to install resident-priority parking lots on back roads," and declared, "I will create 'niche parking lots' in each neighborhood to provide free parking spaces managed by residents."

In addition, Lee Yong-taek proposed reviving the senior citizen allowance he had introduced in the 7th City Council, while also creating customized jobs so that seniors seeking employment can achieve 100% employment.

He also put forward a pledge to create jobs for homemakers in fields such as statistics, surveys, and records related to Suwon's administrative affairs.
