The Gihuminsaeng Party (Korean: 기후민생당; lit. Climate People's Life Party), formerly Minsaeng Party (Korean: 민생당; lit. People's Life Party), is a conservative liberal political party in South Korea based in the Honam region.

History

The party was formed on 24 February 2020 by the merger of three parties—Bareunmirae Party, New Alternatives and Party for Democracy and Peace. Ten days before, all three parties agree to be merged and re-founded as a new party.[9]

Originally, the party was planned to be formed as the Democratic Unified Party (민주통합당) on 17 February.[9] However, on the day of the agreement, the Bareunmirae President Sohn Hak-kyu showed his objection.[9] In addition, on 18 February, the National Election Commission did not allow the upcoming party to use the name as it sounds similar to the extra-parliamentary United Democratic Party.[10]

All three parties then again signed the agreement after the leaderships of all of them decided to resign on 20 February.[11] On 24 February, 3 parties were finally merged and officially re-founded with the current name.[12]

It lost all seats in the 2020 election.[13]

In the 2021 by-elections, the party President Lee Su-bong contested for the Seoul mayorship.[14][15] Despite his less supports, he was able to appear on television debates, as Ahn Cheol-soo, who contested under the banner of its predecessor, Bareunmirae Party, received 19.55% 3 years ago.[14][15] Nevertheless, he received 0.23% and came far behind of Park Young-sun and Oh Se-hoon, and even Huh Kyung-young.[16]

On 19 April 2021, the former party president Kim Jung-hwa made an announcement to quit the party, although she mentioned that she has no willingness to retire from politics.[17]

On 4 May 2021, Lee Su-bong was suspended from the party for a year.[18]

On February 8, 2024, Kim Jong-ki, the acting chairman of the DPP's emergency committee, declared the party's commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development.[citation needed]

On March 15, the committee suggested renaming the party to "Climate People's Democratic Party," in line with the party constitution.[citation needed] The Central Election Commission confirmed the name change on March 19.[citation needed] Former Chairman Seo Jin-hee was elected as the new party chairman, with Lee Seung-han, Lee Jin, and Nae-hoon as supreme committee members, and Lee Ki-hyun as the National Party Congress chairman. On March 20, Kim Jong-ki released a commentary titled "The Climate People's Party is a party that protects life, democracy, human rights, and the livelihood of ordinary people," which was disseminated via media outlets.[19] According to a court search, an appeal was lodged following the Supreme Court's 2024 decision, case number 2024 Na 2015771. Finally, on March 22, Seo Jin-hee was officially announced as the representative following the resolution from March 19, and the general secretary position was declared vacant.[20]

Political position

The party has a support base among elderly and socially conservative Christians in the Honam region.[21] The Democratic Peace Party, a former Honam regionalist party, strongly opposed abortion, but Minsaeng Party has no official position on abortion.

On the LGBT issue, MPs expressed their opposition to same-sex marriage, but criticized some socially conservative member of the Democratic Party of Korea's hostile tendencies toward LGBT people.[22]
