Previously, Oh met with former lawmaker Yoo Seung-min, former President Lee Myung-bak, Lee Jun-seok, leader of the Reform Party, and Kim Jeongcheol, the Reform Party's candidate for Seoul mayor. Political circles interpret these meetings as a move to consolidate centrist and conservative forces.

Oh stated, "For the future generation, the most important task for securing Seoul's competitiveness is to determine how we can help young people utilize advanced science and technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), for employment and entrepreneurship. In that context, I invited Assemblyman Ahn, who is highly insightful in this field, to share his encouragement and advice."

Assemblyman Ahn remarked, "Whenever I speak with candidate Oh, I see that his main focus is on young people. Even for our generation, if we ask ourselves whether we are providing the younger generation with an environment as good as the one our fathers created for us, I think we fall far short. But candidate Oh is deeply aware of this issue."

Ahn continued, "While having a meal, I said that if we can address these issues in Seoul, where many young people live, and create good programs that can be benchmarked nationwide, it would improve the situation in our country. I meant it sincerely. After visiting today, I could see that these are not just words or ideas, but that concrete efforts are being made, such as building facilities and facilitating employment. It was a personally rewarding experience." The Seoul Youth Employment Academy, operated by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, is a workplace-oriented educational institution designed to train practical talent suited for the AI era.
