President Moon Jae-in will hold a New Year's press conference today (18th) and explain the direction of this year's state administration.
Due to the corona, online and offline are combined, and answers to the former president's amnesty or real estate issues are expected to come out.
This news is from Park Won-kyung.
<Reporter> The
President's New Year's press conference will be held from 10 am today at the Cheongwadae Chunchu Hall for about two hours.
Today, 120 reporters participate in the press conference, and only 20 reporters attend the site, taking into account the social distancing caused by Corona 19.
The remaining 100 people will participate via video connection, and reporters who cannot participate online or offline will receive questions through the chat window.
Today's press conference is largely divided into quarantine and social fields, politics and economy, and diplomacy and security.
In the field of politics, it is expected that questions will arise as to whether the two former presidents Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye will pardon.
Until now, the Blue House has refrained from commenting on the amnesty theory and has kept a certain distance, but at today's press conference, it is known that President Moon will present his position by answering questions.
As the quarantine field was added to this press conference, it is expected that corona vaccination-related issues will be dealt with in great importance.
Questions are likely to continue on how to improve inter-Korean relations, which have been apologized through the New Year's address, the conflict over the reform of the prosecution, and the inter-Korean relations that have stalled ahead of the inauguration of the US Biden administration.
