Kim Dong-yeon, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, will meet Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, on the 28th.
The meeting between the two is drawing attention as it takes place amid growing possibilities of President Yoon Suk-yeol declaring martial law and an early presidential election.
Earlier, after a 1-night, 2-day visit to the Gwangju area, Governor Kim stated in a broadcast interview that he would become the heir to Roh Moo-hyun's legacy and advocated for constitutional amendments (the 7th Republic), including a four-year presidential term with re-election.
He also expressed opposition to Lee Jae-myung's proposal to provide a "250,000 won nationwide livelihood recovery support fund," arguing that more support should be given to vulnerable groups.
The location of the meeting between Governor Kim and Leader Lee has not been decided.
