A new survey found that President Yoon Suk Yeol's approval rating has slipped from a month ago to stand at 34 percent just a week ahead of the general elections.

According to a Metrix survey of one-thousand adults nationwide conducted last Saturday and Sunday, 34 percent of respondents said Yoon is doing a good job, down five percentage points from a month ago.

Sixty-one percent of those surveyed were dissatisfied with the president, up five percentage points from a month ago. 

The survey also found that the approval rating of the ruling People Power Party(PPP) stood at 35 percent, down four percentage points, while the main opposition Democratic Party's(DP) rating rose by one percentage point to 33 percent.

As a result, the gap between the rival parties’ approval ratings narrowed to two percentage points. 

The survey, commissioned by Yonhap News Agency and Yonhap News TV, has a confidence level of 95 percent with a margin of error of plus or minus three-point-one percentage points
