In particular, Park said, “As I said before, I think we must formally respect the 2015 agreement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.” “The important thing is the spirit of agreement. Restoring the dignity and honor of the victims. It is important to heal the wounds, but I would like to solve this problem in a consensus spirit. “
