[Asia Economy Reporters Lee Ji-eun and Kim Hye-min] Kim Moo-sung, a member of the Future United Party, stated that he will discuss the revision of the "Basic Act on the Settlement of Past Affairs for Truth and Reconciliation," including the required budget of 4 trillion won, in the National Assembly, saying "It will be resolved anyway."

On the afternoon of the 14th, after meeting with Floor Leader Joo Ho-young, Kim told reporters in front of the National Assembly main building, "Including all issues such as the required budget, this is a matter that must be resolved in the few remaining days of the National Assembly."

Earlier, within the United Party, there were opinions that some parts of the revision bill on the Past Affairs Act should be rolled back, pointing out that a budget of up to 4 trillion won could be spent on victims of incidents related to the Past Affairs Act.

However, Kim said, "There should be no disputes back and forth in the middle," adding, "It is not over yet, but we will resolve it anyway." He also suggested the possibility of resolving it during the meeting with the floor leader. Kim said, "When looking at the content alone, there is nothing that cannot be agreed upon between parties. If we have the floor leader meeting today, an agreement will be reached."
