South Korea’s ruling People Power Party is experiencing internal conflict as its Central Ethics Committee appears set to resume disciplinary proceedings targeting members critical of Representative Jang Dong-hyuk. This move has sparked strong backlash from pro-Jang Dong-hyuk factions within the party, signaling a potential internal “disciplinary war.” The committee’s actions are perceived as targeting individuals who have voiced opposition to Jang, a prominent figure. The escalating tensions threaten party unity and could lead to further divisions. Observers suggest the situation stems from ongoing power struggles within the party. The resumption of disciplinary measures follows previous pauses and indicates a hardening of positions on both sides of the dispute.
