[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] On the 22nd, Lee In-young, Minister of Unification, met with young people from the 2030 generation and said, "I think it would be good to pursue unification with a long-term perspective, looking ahead about 30 years."


Minister Lee stated this during the Ministry of Unification's online talk concert in the afternoon, saying, "Sudden unification between South and North Korea would cause confusion and burden for both sides, and in some cases, it could also cause wounds."


He added, "It would be good if we could have a pre-experience of the path to prosperity through the experience of coexistence in peace," and "This process could be a valuable historical wisdom for achieving unification."



He said, "Young people are the key stakeholders and protagonists of Korean Peninsula unification," and "When the divided land connects to the continent and the sea, it will move from a small stage of life to a broader stage of life."
