홍남기 국회 방문…與 "국민 성과 체감토록" 野 "소신껏 하길"

South Korea's newly appointed Finance Minister Hong Nam-ki visited the National Assembly on Thursday to discuss economic policy with the leaders of the political parties.
Minister Hong met with the chair of the ruling Democratic Party of Korea, Lee Hae-chan, who asked Hong to draw on his past experience to revitalize the economy.
The newly elected floor leader of Liberty Korea Party, Na Kyung-won said she will help the minister to the fullest if he presents measures that will cushion the side effects of the government's income-led growth policies, like the higher minimum wage, which the opposition says are moving too fast.
