Yoon Seok-yeol and Lee Jun-seok Dinner Meeting in Ulsan... Four Days After Campaign Committee Conflict
Meeting Scheduled After Four Days of Conflict
Brokered by Kim Ki-hyun Mediation
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] Four days after conflict arose between Yoon Seok-yeol, the People Power Party's presidential candidate, and Lee Jun-seok, the party leader, they have agreed to hold a dinner meeting in Ulsan on the 3rd.
Lee's side announced to reporters through a notice that Yoon and Lee have decided to hold a dinner meeting in the afternoon at a restaurant in Ulju-gun, Ulsan. Kim, the floor leader, will also attend the meeting.
Earlier, as Lee canceled his official schedule for the fourth consecutive day and continued his private local activities, Yoon headed to Ulsan to meet Lee and have a conversation.
The meeting appears to have been arranged through the mediation of Floor Leader Kim. After meeting Lee at the Ulsan city party office and having a conversation for nearly 1 hour and 20 minutes, Kim told reporters after the meeting, "When I heard the candidate was coming down, I thought we should meet and resolve the issue, so I told Lee, and Lee agreed, so I thought we should arrange a meeting with the candidate in Ulsan." He added, "We shared thoughts on how to overcome various political issues with Lee."
Lee, who moved from Jeju to Ulsan that day, visited the Ulsan city party office to give a lecture as a speaker at a private Women's Studies Academy. Before the lecture, he met with Floor Leader Kim, Seo Beom-su, the party leader's secretary general, and Kim Do-eup, the policy committee chairman, to discuss the conflict situation.
