South Korean opposition leader Lee Jae-myung, after being stabbed in the neck in Busan, is now in intensive care in a Seoul hospital following a surgery to repair a major blood vessel. The unidentified attacker, who approached Lee under the guise of seeking an autograph, was arrested on site. This incident has triggered concerns over politicians' safety on the campaign trail, particularly in light of the upcoming parliamentary election in April, where Lee's Democratic Party hopes to retain majority against the ruling conservative party.
