Campaign developments

On 27 October 2023, the Justice Party and Green Party announced their intention to form an electoral alliance and invited other left-wing parties to participate.[1] This move was heavily criticized by Justice Party Members of Parliament Jang Hye-young and Ryu Ho-jeong, as well as former Justice Party Youth Committee Chair Kim Chang-in; all three believe that the Justice Party should form electoral alliances not by ideology, but with any "third zone" party opposed to the Democratic Party and People Power Party.[2]
