(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Park Gyeong-jun and Choi Joo-seong = On the 6th, Kim Min-seok, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, met with Song Chi-yong, the new leader of the Social Democratic Party, at the National Assembly and discussed cooperation plans between the two parties.

At the meeting with Representative Song, Representative Kim said, "The Social Democratic Party and the Democratic Party are comrades who have shared the revolution of light that has shaped the past and present," and "They are also comrades who share the basic goals and ideals of the society we must create."

During the meeting, Representatives Kim and Song reached a consensus on easing the number of negotiating groups.

Representative Kim said, “A representative political task that the two parties must solve together is the issue of easing the number of negotiation groups for progressive parties,” and added, “We will solve (the problem) by seriously achieving results together with various progressive parties, including the Social Democratic Party.”

In response, Representative Song said, “The Social Democratic Party claimed a maximum of 5 seats (as the number of negotiating groups), but I hope that they will take the first step toward normalizing the negotiating groups as quickly as realistically possible.”

Representative Song also said, “The core of inequality and unfairness is the asset gap. To reduce this, we must first rescue the homeless who have become hostages of the rich who own multiple homes,” and asked, “It was unfortunate that it seemed to only cover the Democratic Party’s comprehensive real estate tax reduction measure, but please focus the party’s energy on housing stability.”
