Then we will connect the reporter to the Blue House and learn more about it.

Kim Jung-yoon, first of all, today (17th) a government official briefed the foreign reporter about this incident. What story came out there?

<Reporter>

Around 40 foreign reporters from Seoul have been involved in government before some kind of international public opinion.

Japanese reporters are about a third.

A government official said in a briefing reminiscent of Mr. Abe's remarks at the G20 meeting last month.

"The free and open economy is the foundation of world peace and prosperity," Abe said.

A government official said, referring to the history of modernization in Japan, emphasizing that free trade is not the largest beneficiary country in Japan, and that targeting the Korean semiconductor industry will have a negative impact on billions of global consumers including Apple, Amazon and Sony.

So what is important in the international press conference that we just talked about is the move of the United States. Now the US Assistant Secretary for East Asia and the Pacific, who is in our country, mentioned US involvement. What does this mean?

<Reporter>

Steel Well, Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian Affairs, said today that we will do what we can do while meeting our government officials. Listen for a moment.

[David Stillwell / Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs: As a close friend and ally, the United States will do what it can to support Korea's efforts to resolve the issue.]

In the meantime, since it is an alliance, I will be involved in all issues related to the US. This "involvement" is weaker than "arbitration".

Our diplomats explained that it seems that the United States would not be able to take either side of it, but it would seem to this effect that the situation would be worse, or that it would be managed and managed so as not to affect the security cooperation between Korea and the United States.

If you go back and look ahead to the report of Kwon Ji-yoon, will the Blue House be going to the Kang Dae-ri for the time being?

<Reporter>

One of the things that symbolizes the present atmosphere of the Blue House is the SNS of the head of the country.

Today, he said that he had put up a media report on the outbreak of the Korea-Japan economic war and summarized important points.

Now, this is a war without gunshots, which is a war between Korea and Japan for the future strategic status. So, once the government, the political party, the corporation and the media respond to each other in terms of the national interest, this perception is read.

So it is not the time to talk about the special envoy issue in Japan.
