[Asia Economy Reporters Kang Nahum and Jeon Jinyoung] On the 29th, President Moon Jae-in urged the newly elected Democratic Party leadership to "unite the party around the leadership and become the vanguard in overcoming the crisis."


At the Democratic Party convention held at the party headquarters that day, President Moon said in a pre-recorded video, "You must communicate with the people and lead the innovation of the Republic of Korea. Through cooperation with the opposition party, you must create a trustworthy National Assembly and become the catalyst for national unity."


President Moon emphasized, "We have not forgotten the mission entrusted to our party to complete a country worthy of the people and a new Republic of Korea, which began with the Candlelight Revolution. Now is the time for the party to demonstrate its strength. We are facing difficulties due to the resurgence of COVID-19 and flood damage, and the economic situation remains severe. For the suffering people, we must overcome this crisis as soon as possible."


He continued, "We will leap forward as a leading country in the post-COVID era through the Korean New Deal. We will unwaveringly realize the dream of a country where everyone prospers together, and we will never stop taking steps toward permanent peace on the Korean Peninsula. We will surely turn the current crisis into an opportunity and create a new 100-year history for the Republic of Korea."


He also stressed, "The people have not forgotten the mission entrusted to our party, which began with the Candlelight Revolution. Now is the time for the party to demonstrate its strength. Comrades must trust each other and unite."



President Moon expressed gratitude to the current party leadership, whose term ends that day, saying, "Over the past two years, thanks to the efforts of party members, our party has become much stronger. I thank the party members who did their best, Representative Lee Hae-chan, and the party leadership for their hard work."
