Impact Players: Lee Wan-koo & Park Young-sun

On May 8, the Saenuri Party and the NPAD announced that Rep. Lee Wan-koo and Park Young-sun would be their respective Floor Leaders in the National Assembly. Both individuals are noted not only for their relative experience but also their similarly pugnacious political style. In the case of Rep. Lee, the media has also been noted that he is a close ally and confidante to President Park. Many have cited that the relationship likely started when they worked closely to retain the original plans for Sejong City laid out by the late President Roh Moo-hyun.
