The announcement is expected to be made as early as 2 PM and no later than around 3 PM.

Spokesperson Kim told reporters at the party headquarters in the morning, "We will try to make the announcement by 3 PM if possible," adding, "It seems there will be five people: the chairman, vice chairman, the planning and coordination division secretary, and two committee members."

When asked whether President-elect Yoon would announce the appointments personally, Kim replied, "There are many private schedules, so it is unlikely."
