President Moon Jae-in proposed to the elected Yoon Seok-yeol to meet as soon as possible.

As the meeting scheduled two days ago was canceled, there was a controversy that a conflict between the old and the old powers had arisen, but the president reached out first.

The elected side also responded that they would produce a desirable result, so it is likely that a meeting date will be set soon.



Today (18th), the first news, reporter Kwon Ran, will be delivered.

Two days after the meeting was canceled, President Moon Jae-in publicly and officially proposed to President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol to meet quickly.



He emphasized that it is the duty of the people.



He also advised not to get bogged down in the agenda.



[Park Gyeong-mi / Blue House Spokesperson: (President Moon) said that he does not think any coordination is necessary, and that the door of the Blue House is always open.]



Since the meeting on the 16th, working-level discussions have continued, but there is no progress.



In particular, it was reported that it was not easy to coordinate opinions on the personnel rights issue of public institutions, including the Governor of the Bank of Korea and the Audit Committee of the Board of Audit and Inspection.



In a situation where the conflict between the old and the old is escalating into a controversy, President Moon reached out to meet and solve it.



He also instructed his staff to pay attention to creating an atmosphere for the meeting.



[Park Kyung-mi / Blue House Spokesperson: President Moon instructed not to express individual opinions about the elected party's promises or the direction of state affairs.]



It is interpreted as pointing out the SNS post that Tak Hyeon-min, secretary of the protocol, posted on Yoon-elect's plan to relocate the presidential office, "If we're not going to use the Blue House, can't we just use it?"



Three hours after President Moon's proposal, Yoon-elect also responded.



"We are communicating closely based on mutual trust," he said.



President Lee Myung-bak and President-elect Park Geun-hye in 2012, and President Roh Moo-hyun and President-elect Lee Myung-bak in 2007 all met on the tenth day after the election.



President Moon's proposal also came out on the tenth day after the election, but considering the burden on both sides of the failure of the meeting, the possibility of a meeting early next week is being weighed.
