The ruling and opposition parties have decided to pass a bill on reforming the electoral system based on the introduction of the "interactive proportional representation system" in the special session of the National Assembly in January next year, but it has been a long road ahead. The degree of interlinked application, the adjustment of the number of lawmakers, and the selection of local constituencies and proportional representatives, and the positions of the rival parties are sharply divided.

"It is unprecedented and meaningful that the five parties agreed to reform the electoral system," said Chung Dong-young, leader of the배팅사이트
Democratic and Peace Party, at a luncheon meeting on Wednesday. "I will continue to fight hard until the election system is reformed."

The ruling and opposition parties are also questioning the feasibility of the election system because it is a high-level formula in which variables from various interests are intertwined.

The biggest challenge is how much of an interlinked proportional representation system is applied. The Bareun Mirae Party, the Peace Party and the Justice Party, which staged a rally in the National Assembly, are demanding a 100 percent interlinked system. They argue that all seats should be allocated on the basis of the party's. However, it is hard to accept from the perspective of the Democratic Party and the Korean Party. Once the two major parties have applied fully interlocking to allocate the winner of the local constituencies first, the portion that will be paid to proportional representatives will be very small. It is hard to rule out a scenario in which none of the proportional representation votes can be allocated. This is why the Democratic Party is voicing its opinion that the level of cooperation should be adjusted.

The ruling Uri Party has not even properly discussed whether to introduce an interlinked proportional representation system. Although the party plans to hold a general meeting of lawmakers in the future to discuss the matter, it is not easy to conclude the party's opinions quickly.

The lack of coercion in the agreement also hinders the process of reforming the electoral system. This is because it only has declarative meaning of 'consideration of appropriate' proportional representation system and it does not violate agreement even if it refuses to introduce it after review. The ruling and opposition parties' decision to agree to the National Assembly's special committee on political reform on these issues seems to have turned the ball over to the special committee on political reform. If each party, including the Democratic Party (8 seats) and the Korea Party (6 seats), which have 14 out of 18 seats in the special committee, repeats its existing stance, the discussion on the special committee will be held in parallel. There are already concerns that a revision bill to the election law without any substance will be made.

The ruling and opposition parties are also worried about the number of lawmakers. While the three opposition parties believe it is inevitable to expand the number of numbers by 10 to 20 percent, the Democratic Party and the Korean Party make it clear that the revision of the number should be minimized in consideration of public opinion. The agreement between the ruling and opposition parties included a phrase, "We will review it including expansion within 10 percent." However, the ratio is not limited. Special Committee on the intention of amendment. Sim Sang-jung In a press conference, the chief of the 360 seats and 300, which, all these opinions, not talk specifically to 10 percent in the same sense of respect.How do is to increase some system that follows in the design, stressed.

It is also a task to solve the way in which local constituencies and proportional representatives are elected. Although local district lawmakers are currently employing a small constituency system that selects one person per constituency, the Korean party has proposed the introduction of a mixed-city election system that includes elements of the mid- to large-scale constituency system. The main opposition Democratic Party opposes the idea of creating a gap in representation among lawmakers. In the case of the proportional representative election, the Democratic Party is confronting the nomination system by region and the three opposition parties by calling for the party name system by national unit.
