People Power Party Faces Candidate Shortage Ahead of By-elections

The People Power Party (PPP) is reportedly struggling to find candidates for the upcoming June 3 mini-general elections, with some potential hopefuls declining to run. In a live broadcast of "Endgame News" on April 30, panelists discussed the party's difficulties, including a lack of competitive figures and internal divisions. Former Democratic Party lawmaker Shin Hyun-young and former Democratic Party supreme council member Lee Dong-hak joined anchor Hwang Yeon-shil to analyze the situation. The discussion highlighted that what was once seen as a pool of potential candidates has turned into a liability, forcing the PPP to consider fielding weak contenders or even abandoning certain races.
