Despite widespread calls for reform following the ruling People Power Party s (PPP) devastating defeat in the April 10 parliamentary elections, key figures aligned with President Y.
The Reform Party and the Saemirae Party are speeding up their respective preparations for the April 10 general elections following a not-so-amicable split. Tight competition is expected between the two parties as they strive to recruit lawmakers to secure an advantage in the upcoming elections.
Han Dong-hoon, the new interim leader of the ruling People Power Party (PPP), sought to strengthen the conservative party’s footing in the liberal strongholds of Gwangju and the surrounding Jeolla provinces, Thursday, promising that his party will express its gratitude to the regions through policies by using its power as the ruling party.
The ruling People Power Party (PPP) will soon embrace its interim leader, former Justice Minister Han Dong-hoon, who is already leading polls as the most preferred conservative presidential candidate. Furthermore, his relationship with President Yoon Suk Yeol is anticipated to decide not only the ruling party’s campaign in the upcoming general elections but also Yoon s political career.
