Lee Jun-seok to Promote 'Kwon Young-se, Jung Byung-guk' for Recruiting External Personnel
[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Boryeong] Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, announced additional appointments for next year's presidential and local elections.
On the 21st, at the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly, Lee appointed Representative Kwon Young-se as Chair of the External Cooperation Committee, former Future United Party (the predecessor of the People Power Party) Representative Jeong Byeong-guk as Chair of the Talent Recruitment Committee, and Representative Lee Young as Chair of the Digital Party Committee.
Lee explained, "(The Chair of the External Cooperation Committee) plays a role in smoothly managing the process as many presidential candidates join the party," adding, "From the party leader's standpoint, to ensure a fair presidential primary, I will not have any contact with presidential candidates outside the party. The Chair of the External Cooperation Committee is entrusted with the significant role of actively engaging with candidates outside the party on my behalf and guiding them into the party."
He continued about former Representative Jeong, "He has served five terms and communicates extensively with reform-minded figures both inside and outside the party," and said, "To expand our party's landscape, we will recruit various personnel and especially engage in diverse communications with reformists and experts who have become disillusioned with the Moon Jae-in administration's failures."
