Original: Lee’s falling approval tests his fight against the market

South Korean President Lee Jae-myung's approval rating is slipping as he pursues measures to cool the real estate market. Observers say the policy fight against speculative housing prices is increasingly colliding with public sentiment, putting pressure on the president as his support erodes. The tension between market intervention and waning popularity is drawing wide attention in Korea.

Why now: The president's approval decline coincides with his government's contested real estate market crackdown, making the political cost of the policy a live debate.
