On the 25th, visiting the 'Smart Super' in Dongjak-gu, Seoul, former Minister Park, while celebrating President Moon Jae-in's birthday the previous day, said regarding the 'Moon Jae-in holding country' remark, "The meaning of holding country is something we should be proud of," adding, "Each and every citizen is a holding country."

Former Minister Park emphasized, "It is very important to gather the 'power of positivity' by sharing how much future South Korea and Seoul have by holding these people."

On the 24th, former Minister Park wrote on her Facebook, "Happy birthday to President Moon Jae-in, many many congratulations," and added, "South Korea is a Moon Jae-in holding country!!!"

In response, former lawmaker Na Kyung-won reacted on Facebook, saying, "Follow the people's heart (Minshim), not the Moon's heart (Munsim)," and "The people are no longer proud of being a 'Moon Jae-in holding country'." She continued, "I understand the desire to congratulate President Moon Jae-in on his birthday. However, the people do not want to hear praise."

Former Minister Park immediately responded, "The people, each and every citizen, are all holding countries," and said, "Let's be proud. It's okay for us to be so."
