At the National Assembly on the same day, Gyeongjunwi held its first meeting and disclosed the future meeting schedule. Han Ki-ho, Secretary General of the People Power Party and vice chairman of Gyeongjunwi, stated, "We decided to form a Planning Subcommittee and a Verification Subcommittee." Regarding the Verification Subcommittee, Han said, "Since preliminary candidates must register immediately, we need to discuss issues related to those who find it difficult to accept certain candidates."

Earlier, Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, said in his opening remarks at the meeting, "The scope of Gyeongjunwi's activities covers all planning related to the primary preparation process, except for matters requiring amendments to the party constitution and regulations." He added, "I ask you to take on the role of conducting the primary smoothly without discord through close communication with the Supreme Council, and to gather candidates like the colorful toppings of bibimbap so that they can present a very impressive image to the public."

Seo Byung-soo, a member of the People Power Party and chairman of Gyeongjunwi, said, "Until around the end of August, before the Presidential Candidate Election Management Committee is launched, we will be responsible for preparing everything related to the primary and election." He added, "Since matters such as party constitution, regulations, and rules must go through the Supreme Council and then the party convention or national committee, those issues will be entrusted to the Supreme Council."

Seo promised, "Since Leader Lee took office, there has been considerable momentum in expanding the party's external outreach, including among young people. We will do our best to sustain and broaden this strength so that we can hold a primary that will serve as the foundation for achieving a regime change this time."
