[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] The Secretariat of the National Assembly announced that it will convene the July extraordinary session of the National Assembly on the 4th.

On that day, Park Hong-geun, floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, and others withdrew their request for an assembly and submitted a request to convene a plenary session on the 4th. Accordingly, the plenary session is scheduled for 2 p.m. on the 4th.

Earlier, the Democratic Party held a party meeting the day before and decided to withdraw the original plan to hold a plenary session on the 1st to elect the Speaker of the National Assembly, and instead negotiate with the People Power Party on the organization of the National Assembly until the 4th. If there is no progress in the negotiations over the weekend, they plan to hold a plenary session on the afternoon of the 4th to elect the Speaker.
