[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The 'Chosimmanri,' a reform group of first-term lawmakers from the United Future Party, announced that it has prepared a reform plan to nominate 30% of basic council members from the 2030 generation.

On the morning of the 23rd, Chosimmanri held a regular seminar at the National Assembly and decided to propose this reform plan to Kim Jong-in, the emergency committee chairman of the United Future Party.

The first-term lawmakers gathered at the seminar diagnosed that while the Democratic Party of Korea has 1.02 million paying party members mainly among young people in the metropolitan area, the United Future Party has only 320,000 responsible party members centered on the 5060 generation, making it difficult to prepare for the presidential election in two years under these circumstances.

Accordingly, the opinion was presented that 30% of basic council members should be nominated from the 2030 generation, verified, and then promoted and nominated as metropolitan council members, basic local government heads, and members of the National Assembly to create next-generation leaders like the "Korean version of Macron." They also decided to propose seven major action plans, including the establishment of a youth party, immediate disciplinary action against party members who damage dignity through abusive language, and exclusion from the next nomination.
