[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Park Joo-sun, Chairman of the Grand Integration Reform Committee of the Bareunmirae Party, stated on the 12th regarding the position of Representative Sohn Hak-kyu, "Representative Sohn has agreed to step down from his position by the end of February."
On the afternoon of the same day, on CBS Radio's 'Sisa Jaki with Jung Kwan-yong,' Chairman Park said, "Right now, Representative Sohn is not preparing for the election under the Sohn Hak-kyu system," and added, "Since the integration with the future forces keeps being delayed and if it goes beyond February 28, we promised to stipulate in the party constitution that he will resign at that time."
Chairman Park also stated, "If the three parties integrate on the 17th, the future forces will soon integrate as well, and we expect the overall integration to be completed by around the 23rd to 25th."
