S. Koreans talk U.S. election expectations

Description
South Korea will be affected by the results of the election one way or the other.
So we went out to Gwanghwamun Square in downtown Seoul to find out what Koreans think about the candidates and the issues.
It seems defense is one of the major concerns along with trade and COVID-19.
Take a listen.
"I care about the U.S. election because the relationship between our countries is not something to be taken lightly. I guess the economy is the biggest issue."
"I don't care much about who becomes president, but I do hope the problem of our defense costs gets resolved."
"I think the national defense issue is the most important. The U.S. is asking for a lot of money for defense, so I think that's important."
"Whoever becomes president will greatly affect South Korea's future prospects. I'm personally more in favor of Trump."
"I am more in favor of Biden. Looking at the current measures against COVID-19, I do think it will be better on a global basis for the Democratic candidate to be president.
