In the center is Kim Dae-gi, the nominee for Chief of Staff to the President.

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Je-hoon] On the 11th, Jang Je-won, a member of the People Power Party, said regarding the pro-Yoon Seok-yeol faction (pro-Yoon) lawmakers' group 'Mindeulle', "If my participation in the lawmakers' group (Mindeulle) is a problem, I will not participate in the group."

On the same day, Jang stated on his social media service (SNS), "There are rumors in the media about conflicts with Floor Leader Kwon Seong-dong. There will be no conflict with Seong-dong hyung (Floor Leader Kwon) in the Yoon Seok-yeol administration," expressing this view.

Earlier, Floor Leader Kwon had said regarding the Mindeulle group, which is mainly composed of pro-Yoon lawmakers including Jang, "A group that can cause misunderstandings among the public is inappropriate," and "If it is a group with intentions, I will take the lead as floor leader to stop it," expressing concerns that such a group could lead to factional conflicts within the party.

Jang repeatedly dismissed the rumors of conflict with Floor Leader Kwon, saying, "Once brothers are always brothers (A brother is a brother)," and added, "I believe in Leader Kwon's sincerity. I hope various groups for healthy discussions, exchanges, and communication among lawmakers will be activated."
