The luncheon with President Moon, Mayor Oh, and Mayor Park was held privately. The Blue House plans to explain the contents of the luncheon conversation later that afternoon.

This luncheon was held in the form of inviting metropolitan mayors who won the April 7 by-elections. In this election, Oh, affiliated with the People Power Party, and Park defeated Democratic Party candidates and were elected.
