People's Strength candidate Yoon Seok-yeol is scheduled to meet with Japanese Ambassador to Korea Koichi Aiboshi this morning to discuss issues of interest between Korea and Japan.
Candidate Yoon confirmed the already known five general managers and special heads of the election committee yesterday, but Kim Jong-in, who was trying to recruit as the general election chairperson, was in the form of an 'open door' missing.

Candidate Yoon had a dinner with former Chairman Kim on the 24th, but he could not narrow the difference of opinion over the appointment of Kim Byung-jun as the permanent election chairman.
Former Chairman Kim said, "I am not backing down any more and I am waiting for it to be resolved on my own." He expressed his displeasure at the report of Candidate Yoon's remarks that 'there was an ultimatum about joining', saying, "I trembled."
Candidate Yoon's side once said that they would work harder without a deadline to join former Chairman Kim, but there are many observations that it will not be easy to join as the goal of the conflict has been confirmed more after the dinner.
