Yoo urged the transition committee members and special advisors, "You must all reflect on the meaning of the appointment and commission letters," and added, "What the mayor-elect has bestowed should be considered as given by the 3 million citizens, and you must keep that solemn command and faithfully fulfill your duties."

He continued, "You share the same values and philosophy with me," emphasizing, "We must achieve results so that the 8th popularly elected term will be remembered in history."
