[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Jeong-min] The Blue House took action by holding a National Security Council (NSC) meeting at noon on the 24th regarding the Yeonpyeong Island missing public official shooting incident.

The Blue House is examining the impact of this incident on inter-Korean relations from various angles. Given that President Moon Jae-in mentioned a Korean Peninsula end-of-war declaration in his UN speech, there is growing concern at the Blue House that this could become a negative factor worsening inter-Korean relations.

The Blue House held a countermeasure meeting centered on Chief Presidential Secretary Noh Young-min, followed by an emergency meeting of related ministries attended by Defense Minister Jeong Kyeong-doo, Unification Minister Lee In-young, and National Intelligence Service Director Park Ji-won.

The Blue House plans to announce the results as soon as the NSC meeting concludes.
