Korean politics welcomes new figures of leadership.

On 23 July, the People Power Party (PPP) elected Han Dong-hoon as the new party leader, marking his political rise following his latest tenure as the PPP interim leader. Meanwhile, Lee Jae-myung's re-election as the Democratic Party (DP) leader appears to be certain, allowing him to shift his focus to long-term party policies and vision.

In the National Assembly, new ministerial-level figures are undergoing confirmation hearings, including an unprecedented three-day hearing for the Korea Communications Commission chairperson nominee, reflecting the current dynamic and challenging political landscape.
