After paying respects at the Unknown Soldier's Cemetery, he told reporters, "The world is built on the dedication and efforts of nameless common people," emphasizing, "Many people question why we visit places like the Unknown Soldier's Cemetery, but while some leave their names behind, others could not even leave their names or memorial tablets and disappeared. Those people protected this country."
