[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Jo Su-jin, spokesperson for the Future Korea Party, refuted rumors of delays in the merger by stating, "There is no disagreement on the principle that the merger must be completed by the 29th."


In a statement released on the afternoon of the 20th, Spokesperson Jo said, "We hope you trust us and wait."


This was a clarification following reports suggesting that the Future Korea Party, hinting at an independent path, would find it difficult to merge with the Future United Party within this month. Previously, the term of Representative Won Yoo-chul, set to end on the 29th of this month, was extended until the end of August.



Spokesperson Jo stated, "The Future Korea Party elected members have no disagreement on the principle that the merger must be completed by the 29th," adding, "As you know, a committee for discussions has also been formed."
