The recent national assembly meeting of the People Power Party (PPP) led by Jang Dong-hyuk ended with little debate over his refusal of the 'Jeolyun' initiative, an expected focal point of contention. The meeting, held on the 23rd, was initially anticipated to dive deeply into this matter, but it was largely overshadowed by a lengthy discussion on the previously agreed-upon change of the party’s name stemming from local elections. As a result, members of the party, particularly those aligned with former leader Han Dong-hoon, expressed frustration by labeling the assembly as an 'input-muffled meeting'.

Criticism continued into the following day, with PPP lawmaker Park Jeong-ha voicing his frustrations in a radio interview, stating that there seems to be no viable path for party change and expressing a heavy heart regarding the current state of the situation. Additionally, a faction of younger lawmakers known as 'Alternative and Future' urged party leader Jang to convene a supplementary meeting to discuss 'Jeolyun' and its implications, highlighting a clear divide within the party about its future direction.

The question now looms as to how long Jang Dong-hyuk will be able to sidestep internal demands for clarity on 'Jeolyun' and whether the newly emerging figure referred to as 'New Lee Jae-myung' will gain sufficient influence. Alongside this, the ongoing legislative efforts by the Democratic Party of Korea aimed at judicial reform raise concerns about whether such bills can successfully navigate through the parliamentary process. The implications of these internal party dynamics and external legislative pressures could significantly shape the political landscape in South Korea moving forward.
