The People’s Power and the government held a high-ranking party government meeting today and announced that they would soon announce a government reorganization plan to secure the power of the Yun Seok-yeol government.
The abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and the establishment of the Office of Overseas Koreans appear to be issues.

In discussions with the high-ranking party to resolve the late-night taxi crisis, the government reorganization plan was also raised as an important topic of discussion.
[한덕수 / 국무총리 : 정부 조직이 효율적, 체계적으로 개편되어 윤석열 정부 성공에 기여할 수 있기를 기대합니다.]
At first, President Yoon Seok-yeol promoted a government organizational reorganization plan centered on the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family from the time of the transition committee, but it was postponed for now.
It was a measure that took into account the reality of being a woman.
[안철수 / 당시 대통령직 인수위원장 (지난 4월) : 인수위 기간 중 조급하게 결정해서 추진하기보다는 당면 국정 현안에 집중하는 것이 바람직하다고 판단했습니다.]
It seems that the reason the party government rekindled the fire following six months was because the Yoon Seok-yeol government decided that it might not be delayed any longer.
The will to clearly establish the basic principle of people’s livelihood to do what needs to be done in the midst of a political battle between the ruling and opposition parties, such as the controversy over profanity and the written investigation of former President Moon Jae-in, is also read.
[정진석 / 국민의힘 비상대책위원장 : 국정 동력을 확보하고 경제를 살리는 적시 적기의 조직 개편은 마땅히 장려돼야 한다고 생각합니다.]
Accordingly, the party is expected to abolish the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, which was President Yoon’s election promise, as well as establish the Office of Overseas Koreans, the Office of Immigration and the Space and Space Administration.
We are reviewing a plan to separate the Ministry of Health and Welfare into the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and a detailed plan will be released soon.
The question is how much to persuade the Democratic Party, which holds a majority of seats, and President Lee Jae-myung has already made clear his opposition to the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family during his presidential campaign.
[이재명 / 당시 더불어민주당 대선 후보 (지난 3월) : 여성가족부가 여성 업무만 하는 것도 아니고 청소년 업무 이런 것도 하고 있는데, 폐지하면 어쩌겠다는 건지 이해가 안 되고요.]
The power of the people, who said they would seek an active explanation and understanding from the opposition, may turn the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family into a long-term task, but
In a situation where the political battle is getting tougher, it seems clear that the opposition front will only get steeper with the government reorganization plan.
