As soon as the government is inaugurated, dialogue between official diplomatic channels for follow-up measures and our efforts to develop measures will follow. “
Mr. Chung said, “Japan is keeping its conventional position on the monetization problem (forced sale of Korean assets of Japanese companies), comfort women problem, and export control problem, which are the concerns of Korea-Japan conflict. We did not disagree with our opinion that we should strive to reach the desired conclusions by gathering patience and wisdom in a future-oriented manner. “
At the same time, he said, “Improving the relationship between Korea and Japan has achieved the result of confirming the sympathy that it is no longer a matter of choice but a matter of interest.”
