"President Lee appears to have been unable to make up his mind about replacing Kim Yong-beom until the very end."
"Additional personnel reshuffles involving the Blue House and the Cabinet are likely... we will have to keep an eye on developments."

"It appears that neither President Lee nor Kim Yong-beom himself wanted a resignation until the end."
"Tensions between the ruling party and the Blue House likely had a decisive impact on the decision to resign."
"The Blue House's response regarding Kim Yong-beom's resignation is expected to be awkward."
