[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyemin] The Liberty Korea Party held a party meeting on the 6th to discuss the name of the unified new party but failed to reach a conclusion.

Kim Jeongjae, the floor spokesperson for the Liberty Korea Party, told reporters immediately after the meeting, "We will continue to discuss the party name while also considering the opinions of the Innovation Integration Promotion Committee."

It was reported that there were many negative opinions about naming the new party itself as the "Unified New Party" at the meeting. Kim, the floor spokesperson, conveyed the reactions of party members, saying, "The values pursued by the party should be reflected in the name, but that is missing." He added, "While 'Unified New Party' is fine, the core of today's meeting was whether the party name should embody the values we aim to pursue."

During the meeting, suggestions were made to include words such as happiness, freedom, future, and innovation in the party name. Kim Chanhyung, head of the Public Relations Headquarters, stated, "The coming era is one where each citizen pursues happiness," adding, "The ultimate concern of the people is 'my happiness.'"

Additionally, opinions were expressed that 'freedom' must be included as it is an essential value that cannot be abandoned in liberal democracy; that 'future' should be included to signify support for future generations; and that 'innovation' should be emphasized. The party color is likely to remain the current red but may be modified slightly in saturation.

The opinions from the meeting will be reported to the Unified New Party Preparation Committee, which was launched that day, as a proposal from the Liberty Korea Party.
