Signal 92.6% of Koreans rate social conflict as serious in a January 2025 public conflict survey

Summary

The plan cites a survey on Korean attitudes to public conflict conducted in January 2025. In that survey 92.6 percent of respondents said that conflict in Korean society is serious. The plan uses the figure to support its observation that political and social polarisation and social conflict have persisted after the martial law and impeachment period. It connects this perception with distrust and antagonism in politics that, in its view, hinder citizen participation and mature public debate. The figure is an observed survey result, while the plan's interpretation of its causes is the government's own.
