Lee Hye-hoon, President Lee Jae Myung's nominee for the new Ministry of Planning and Budget, apologized Tuesday for her past support of former President Yoon Suk Yeol's failed martial law declaration. The move followed presidential instructions to clarify her stance, as she heads into a parliamentary confirmation hearing.
President Lee Jae Myung called for "unity and inclusion" on December 30 during a Cabinet meeting, amid backlash from both ruling and opposition sides over his nomination of opposition figure Lee Hye-hoon as head of the new Ministry of Planning and Budget. He stressed the need for sustained efforts to build a society that embraces differences and moves away from extreme confrontation. The remarks came at the first Cabinet meeting since the presidential office's return to Cheong Wa Dae.
