He also declared, "I will not dwell on the joy of my election, but will immediately become a working mayor," and added, "I will start by listening to the voices of those at stalled business sites, small business owners in difficulty, and companies."

In particular, Kang reaffirmed his commitment to key pledges, saying, "I will definitely make Changwon the most business-friendly city and the top job-creating city in Korea," and specifically cited the creation of 100,000 jobs, the provision of a KRW 1 million energy annuity, and making the Machang Bridge toll-free.
