The People Power Party (PPP; Korean: 국민의힘; lit. Power of Nationals) is a conservative[a] and right-wing[b] political party in South Korea. It is the second-largest party in the National Assembly. The PPP, along with its historic rival, the Democratic Party, make up the two largest political parties in South Korea.
Originally formed as the United Future Party (UFP; 미래통합당) on 17 February 2020 through the merger of the Liberty Korea Party, New Conservative Party, and Onward for Future 4.0, as well as several minor parties and political organizations.[12] The party changed its name to the current on 31 August 2020.
