On the morning of the 11th, President Lee Jae-myung held a press conference to mark the 100th day since his inauguration at the Blue House Guesthouse.
He described Nyon as the right person for the job, saying, "One of the core elements of the new government's industrial and economic policies is to develop the cultural industry."
He continued, "We will develop the cultural capabilities of the Republic of Korea into an industry and make the lives of the Korean people better."
It is important to create a path forward, and Park Jin Young is an extremely talented planner in this regard. I was fortunate to hear that he would accept the position.
"We plan to focus on expanding into the US and Europe. I have high hopes that we will achieve many results," said Kang Hoon-sik, chief of staff to the President, at a briefing at the Presidential Office in Yongsan on the 9th.
The government announced that it will establish a new Public Cultural Exchange Committee and that Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Choi Hee-young and Representative Park Jin-young will serve as co-chairs.
Park Jin Young wrote on his SNS, "Taking on a government job is like being a worker in the entertainment industry.
As an artist, I felt a lot of pressure and worry in many ways, but I felt that K-Pop is now in a very special time and that I must make the most of this opportunity.
He continued, "I have been working on the front lines and have thought about the areas where I would like to have institutional support, so I have been trying to organize them so that effective support can be provided, and also to help junior artists.
"We will work hard to ensure that our artists have more and better opportunities," he added.
