[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Dong-joo] Former co-chair of the Democratic Party's Emergency Committee, Park Ji-hyun, declared her candidacy for party leader on the 15th in front of the National Assembly main gate.


Former Chair Park said, "I want to inform the public that I have decided to run for party leader to transform the Democratic Party into an open party that better listens to diverse voices, a competent party that better takes care of people's livelihoods, and one that can better resolve upcoming crises." She officially declared her candidacy by stating, "I will eradicate sexual crimes and cross the river of the homeland."



Earlier, the Democratic Party's Emergency Committee concluded that Park did not qualify to run because, according to party rules and regulations, only party members who joined at least six months ago have the right to be elected.
