President Lee to Host Luncheon for Former President Moon Jae-in at the Blue House Today

President Lee Jae-myung will host a luncheon for former President Moon Jae-in at the Blue House 영빈관 (State Guest House) today, July 1.

The spouses will not be in attendance, which is reportedly due to the overseas schedule of former First Lady Kim Jung-sook.

The Blue House has been working to arrange a meeting with former President Moon since immediately after President Lee took office.

The Blue House explained that the meeting was finally realized today after continuous coordination, as their schedules had not aligned due to the fast-paced nature of state affairs.

In political circles, attention is focused on whether a message regarding party unity will emerge, as signs of overheated competition for party leadership are appearing ahead of the Democratic Party of Korea's national convention.

Hong Ik-pyo, Senior Secretary to the President for Political Affairs, stated on the 27th of last month, "It will be a meaningful occasion to hear wise counsel from the former president and have a candid discussion on overall state affairs for the sake of public livelihood recovery, national unity, and the success of the government of national sovereignty."

Meanwhile, President Lee is scheduled to host a dinner this evening for the Democratic Party's floor leadership, including Floor Leader Han Byung-do.
