President Yoon Seok-yeol's wife, Kim Gun-hee, is taking care of Lee Soon-ja, wife of the late former President Chun Doo-hwan, on the afternoon of the 16th.
Despite the controversy surrounding the full-fledged public move, it is known that they plan to meet each successive first lady one after another as originally planned.
An official from Mrs. Kim's side said in a phone call with the media today, "Mrs. Kim is going to visit Mrs. Lee's house in Yeonhui-dong around 3 pm today."
Previously, Mrs. Kim visited former President Lee Myung-bak's wife, Kim Yun-ok, and the late former President Roh Moo-hyun's wife, Kwon Yang-sook, in turn, and asked for advice on her role as the president's spouse.
In particular, she visited the village of Bongha in Gimhae, Gyeongsangnam-do, paid a visit to the grave of former President Roh, and chatted with Ms. Kwon for 90 minutes, saying, "I will visit you often and listen to your teachings."
It is reported that Mrs. Kim's side is also coordinating the prevention of President Moon Jae-in and her wife, Kim Jeong-suk.
An official from the presidential office drew a line on the phone, saying, "Mrs. Kim continues to try to meet the first ladies of the past." "It is a private schedule, and her political interpretation is too much."
