South Korean President Lee Jae-myung's approval rating has seen a steady increase since his inauguration, reaching 65% in early July 2025 according to multiple polls including Gallup Korea and NBS. His approval rating surpassed 60% for the first time in early July, with notable support even in traditionally conservative regions such as Daegu and Gyeongbuk (TK), where it exceeded 50%. The Democratic Party's support also remains strong, hovering around 46% to 53.8%, while the opposition People Power Party (PPP) has experienced a decline, falling below 20% in recent polls, marking its lowest level since 2020. The PPP's support dropped sharply in Seoul and in its traditional strongholds like TK and the southeastern region (PK), with some areas showing a rise in undecided voters. Public approval of Lee's handling of real estate policies is mixed, with 35% positive and 25% negative responses, while 42% expect housing prices to rise. Overall, Lee's governance is viewed positively by a majority of South Koreans, including older voters aged 70 and above, and conservative demographics, indicating a shift in political dynamics ahead of the next election cycle.
