[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] On the 10th, President Moon Jae-in will call the Democratic Party's floor leader group to the Blue House for a "lunchbox meeting."

The Blue House announced that from 11:40 a.m. on that day, President Moon will invite the Democratic Party floor leader group for a meeting lasting about an hour.

Since the formation of the floor leader group led by Kim Tae-nyeon in May last year, this is the first time the president has called only the floor leader group separately. It is also seen as a gesture of encouragement for Floor Leader Kim, who is acting as the party leader for the first time after Democratic Party leader Lee Nak-yeon's resignation.

The meeting will be attended by Floor Leader Kim, Senior Deputy Floor Leader Kim Young-jin, Senior Deputy Leaders Jeon Jae-soo and Cho Seung-rae, Floor Spokespersons Park Sung-jun and Hong Jeong-min, and Deputy Leaders Kim Yong-min, Kim Won-hee, Lee Sung-min, Lee So-young, and Hong Seong-guk, totaling 18 members.

The Blue House stated, "This occasion is to commend the efforts of the floor leader group who strive for cooperation and communication among the party, government, and the Blue House," adding, "It was arranged to receive reports on the 21st National Assembly floor activities and to discuss legislative strategies and gather opinions related to National Assembly operations."

In addition, discussions on major legislative issues are expected, along with talks to form a consensus between the party and the Blue House regarding the recent LH speculation scandal.
