Ahead of the general election, the National Election Commission issued guidelines prohibiting people from bringing green onions into the polling place.

The trigger was a green onion priced at only 875 won that was on sale at a discount at Nonghyup Hanaro Mart, which President Yoon Seok-yeol visited to check prices.

During the general election, green onions became a symbol that implied the problems of the Korean economy, such as high inflation and recession.

Coincidentally, the government only approved the settlement plan on the 11th, the day after the general election, because the 10th was a holiday.
