[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] It has been reported that Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, and Ahn Cheol-soo, the presidential candidate of the People Party, had a phone conversation on the morning of the 20th. Ahn is scheduled to hold an emergency press conference at 1:30 PM that day.

According to a People Party official, it was confirmed that Yoon spoke with Ahn on the phone that day. The two are said to have talked for about one minute as a courtesy greeting.

This comes about a week after Ahn proposed a "unification through a public opinion poll in the form of a national primary" to Yoon on the 13th.

Accordingly, attention is focused on whether Ahn will make a statement regarding his position on unification at the press conference scheduled for that day. Previously, Yoon proposed a "direct negotiation between candidates," but Ahn countered with the "public opinion poll" method, causing friction between the two sides over the unification method.
