Kim Min-seok, the newly elected leader of the ruling Democratic Party of Korea (DPK), pledged on Tuesday to provide full backing to President Lee Jae-myung's administration. Kim met with senior presidential aides Kang Hoon-sik and Hong Ihk-pyo at the National Assembly to discuss strengthening collaboration between the ruling party and the executive branch.
This meeting occurred shortly after Kim's election as DPK leader, defeating Rep. Jung Chung-rae who had sought to retain his position for a second term. Kim assured that his party would fully support the government's policies and the president's directives, while also actively listening to public concerns and relaying them to the Cheong Wa Dae and the broader government.
Kim expressed a commitment to working together with the presidential office as a united team, free of obstacles. Kang Hoon-sik echoed Kim's sentiments, emphasizing that the DPK is in the best position to hear and represent the voices of the Korean people.
