Former Prime Minister Han Deok-soo, who is running as an independent, meets with the ruling party's official candidate... Will they ”unite”? = South Korea

Former Prime Minister Han Deok-soo, who announced his candidacy for the next South Korean presidential election as an independent, and Kim Moon-soo, the ruling People Power Party's official candidate, discussed the issue of "unifying the candidates" on the 7th.
On the 6th, both sides announced through public notices that "the two are scheduled to meet at 6 pm on the 7th." Candidate Kim is currently the "one-candidate" of the ruling party.
Kim has declared his suspension of his official candidacy in response to the demands for a "nationalization" of the party. Meanwhile, former Prime Minister Han has avoided commenting on the conflict between candidate Kim and the ruling party.
The former prime minister has always been open about the discussions on unification, and has already said on multiple occasions that he has left the method of unification up to the ruling party."
This is thought to be an attempt to demonstrate former Prime Minister Han's relaxed and consistent attitude, as well as his sense of stability and trustworthiness.
A source close to former Prime Minister Han said, "Former Prime Minister Han is a public servant whose various allegations have been verified through hearings. In addition, he is a politician who is quick with his words.
"Unlike me, he is someone who has practically proven everything," he said. "This will increase the synergy effect once we have unified the candidates."
