President Lee Jae-myung is scheduled to have lunch with former President Moon Jae-in at the Blue House on July 1.

This meeting comes amid ongoing conflicts within the Democratic Party regarding leadership competition, leading to interpretations of its significance for party unity.

Kang Yoo-jung, the chief spokesperson for the Blue House, announced during a briefing on June 25 that President Lee will meet with former President Moon at 11:30 a.m. for lunch.

This will be the first official lunch meeting between the two since President Lee took office, and there is keen interest in the messages that may emerge from the gathering.

However, Moon's wife, Kim Jung-sook, will not attend due to overseas commitments.

Consequently, it is reported that President Lee's wife, Kim Hye-kyung, will also not be present at the lunch.
