● Lee Jun-seok Steps Down as Party Leader

Kim Jun-il / Political Commentator

"As Jang Dong-hyeok's standing strengthens, the possibility of cooperation among the conservative quartet grows."

"Due to the Reform Party's defeat in the local elections, the atmosphere for a merger is growing stronger."

Yoon Hee-seok / Former Senior Spokesperson for the People Power Party

"Lee Jun-seok's resignation as party leader diminishes the raison d'être of the Reform Party."

"Lee Jun-seok has become politically free, raising the possibility of a conservative alliance."

"Oh Se-hun, Yoo Seung-min, Han Dong-hoon, and Lee Jun-seok must respond to the alliance regardless of personal ties."

Choi Sun-ho / SBS Editorial Writer

"Lee Jun-seok's resignation appears to be a decision driven by disappointment amid clashes over party reform proposals."

"We need to see whether the non-Jang anti-Han sentiment will evolve into an anti-Jang alliance."
