[Asia Economy Reporter Son Sun-hee] President Moon Jae-in shared a photo of a basket of roses on the 20th, saying, "These roses are pure Korean varieties developed by our Rural Development Administration, cultivated and harvested in the 'High-Temperature Resistant Innovative Cooling House,'" and introduced it as "a project by the Rural Development Administration planned to be pilot-installed in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), at the end of this year, featuring innovative equipment that controls temperature and humidity with a fine mist device and aluminum curtains."

On the same day, President Moon posted on his social network service (SNS) such as Facebook under the title "I want to share the bouquet of roses delivered to the Blue House with the people," stating, "Not only our variety of roses but also the cooling house equipment and system will be exported together," and added, "It will become a key contributor to agricultural plant exports." He also expressed his gratitude for the achievements of the Rural Development Administration and hoped it would help improve the income of horticultural farmers.

President Moon explained, "I visited the rose cooling house at the National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science last December, and the rose flower stalks being cultivated there were thick, with the flower clusters being particularly elegant and beautiful," adding, "The yield is said to be three times higher."

He then said, "Although we are all going through difficult times now, I hope that hope will bloom beautifully like a bouquet of roses of our variety cultivated with our technology."
