The Democratic Party of Korea and the People's Power said, "We will start a bilateral TV discussion before the Lunar New Year holiday, and proceed with a joint invitational discussion with terrestrial broadcasters."
He added that all current issues in national affairs are the subject of discussion, and that negotiations for additional discussions will continue.
Candidate Shim Sang-jung's Justice Party and Ahn Cheol-soo's People's Party, who were excluded from the consultation, protested that the treatment was unfair and are demanding a multilateral discussion in which they also participate.
