[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The New Conservative Party emphasized the need to form a reformist leadership for the new unified party, stating that "new wine must be put into new wineskins."

On the 12th, Yoo Ui-dong, the responsible representative of the New Conservative Party, said to reporters after the party leadership meeting, "What we demand is that a reformist leadership should emerge with the mindset of building a new house on the foundation of an old one, putting new wine into new wineskins," adding, "Various parties are currently discussing this together to create such leadership."

Regarding the name of the unified party, he said, "The process of deciding the name of the new unified party is underway," and "As far as I know, no final decision has been made yet, and the results of the discussions will soon be announced through the unification committee." Currently, while the parties participating in the unified party are converging on the name 'Great Unified Party,' the New Conservative Party is reportedly proposing the name 'New Korea Party.'

He expressed trust in Kim Hyung-o's Public Relations Committee. Yoo said, "Even if we independently form a Public Relations Committee, fairness is the top priority," adding, "If Kim Hyung-o's committee can uphold fairness and the values of reform conservatism, we are willing to accept it, and it appears that there is sufficient willingness to do so. We accept Kim Hyung-o's committee unconditionally."

Representative Jung Woon-cheon also stated in his remarks that "Although Kim Hyung-o is the Public Relations Committee of the Korean Party, we have recognized and accepted that he has done well so far," adding, "However, the leadership system must be a reform that suits all citizens, and we will strive to establish a focused, reformative, and innovative leadership system."

Co-representative Ha Tae-kyung also said, "We will not tolerate any attempts to shake Kim Hyung-o's Public Relations Committee," and pointed out, "There are fierce behind-the-scenes competitions to add more of their own people now that unification is underway, but we will firmly reject and resolutely fight against any attempt to add even a single person."
