[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] On the 5th, the United Future Party criticized Kim Jong-un's letter, saying, "No one will believe in its sincerity."


Kim Sung-won, spokesperson for the United Future Party, said in a statement that "two days ago, Kim Jong-un's sister Kim Yo-jong hurled low-level insults at our government, calling it a 'scared dog' and accusing it of a 'deficient way of thinking,' and today suddenly sent an unexpected letter," adding, "I want to ask how little they must think of the Republic of Korea to act like this."


Spokesperson Kim said, "The content of the letter is even more ridiculous. After hurling all sorts of insults at the troubled Republic of Korea, carrying out military provocations to stir up anxiety, they now dare to 'console' our people who are fighting the Wuhan COVID-19," adding, "It is beyond suspicion to the point of being chilling as to what their true intentions are."


He pointed out, "The bigger problem is the Blue House's attitude, which is making a fuss as if peace has arrived just because of one letter from Kim Jong-un," and said, "They consistently responded with silence to all kinds of disregard and mockery, but sent a reply letter expressing gratitude, saying they 'sent unwavering friendship and trust to President Moon' in response to Kim Jong-un's letter."



Spokesperson Kim said, "This is not a time to be idle enough to exchange letters and put on a 'political show,'" and added, "North Korea's sincerity toward inter-Korean peace can only be proven by the complete denuclearization of North Korea."
