The approval rating for the ruling Democratic Party of Korea（DPK）has continued on a downward spiral as a result of botched real estate policies and the autocratic passage of controversial bills, a survey showed, Thursday.
週四一份調查顯示，（南韓）執政的共同民主黨支持率，已持續呈螺旋式下降。原因是糟糕的房地產政策及專橫地通過有爭議的法案。
In the poll of 1,510 adults conducted by Realmeter from Monday to Wednesday, 35.6 percent said they support the DPK, while 34.8 percent expressed support for the United Future Party（UFP）.
在南韓民調機構Realmeter自週一至週三、針對1510名成人所做的民調中，35.6%表示，他們支持共同民主黨，而有34.8%表達對（最大在野黨）未來統合黨的支持。
The gap between approval ratings of the parties was the smallest since the UFP was launched in February.
兩黨這次的支持率差距，創下未來統合黨自2月成立以來的最小紀錄。
