President Lee Jae Myung will invite the Democratic Party of Korea's newly elected leadership to Cheong Wa Dae for a dinner on Tuesday.

Cheong Wa Dae chief spokesperson Kang Yu-jung announced the plans Friday.

"Party leader Kim Min-seok, floor leader Han Byung-do, supreme council members and key party officials will attend," Kang said.

Earlier, Lee hosted a dinner at Cheong Wa Dae on Wednesday — the day after the Democratic Party's national convention — with Kim and Reps. Jung Chung-rae and Song Young-gil, who had competed against Kim for the party leadership.
