Opinion Yoon Suk-yeol finds his approval rating floor, despite botched flood responseSupport rate for ROK president bottoms out in 20s and looks likely to stay there due to strong disapproval among public After free-falling for weeks, Yoon Suk-yeol’s approval rate may have finally hit bottom. Last week started out with controversy, as Yoon snubbed Nancy Pelosi during her visit to Korea, and ended in tragedy, with 16 confirmed dead or missing in flooding that hit Seoul. And yet, Yoon’s approval rate remained steady at 25% in Gallup Korea polling, virtually unchanged from 24% last week. The lack of downward movement in his approval rate is surprising given the high-profile nature of both events and the amount of criticism directed at the president in each case.
