SEOUL, May 07 (AJP) - Conservative presidential candidate Kim Moon-soo of the People Power Party and independent candidate Han Duck-soo held a meeting on Wednesday to discuss a possible unification of their candidacies, but the talks ended without any agreement.
The two candidates met privately for about an hour and 15 minutes at a restaurant in Seoul’s Jongno District around 6 p.m., without aides or representatives present.
Following the meeting, Han’s spokesperson Lee Jung-hyun told reporters, “There was no specific agreement reached.” Kim also confirmed to the press that “there was no meaningful progress.”
The failed attempt highlights lingering differences between the two camps just days ahead of the official registration period for presidential candidates.
