Hope of Korea

[citation needed] The party was established by Parliamentarian Yang Hyang-ja on 28 July 2023.

On July 15, 2021, Yang was expelled from the Democratic Party for her handling of sexual misconduct in her office.

Yang then inflicted second punishment by gaslighting the victim, ignoring the complaints, and denying the situation in interviews.

[citation needed] The Party was officially registered to the National Election Commission with 1 member of parliament on 28 August 2023.

The minor Open Democratic Party expressed displeasure and filed a complaint to the National Elections Commissions after claiming that Hope of Korea was using a logo too similar to the Open Democratic Party's logo.
