The resignation of candidate Yong Hye-in reignites the debate on the existence of the semi-mixed proportional representation system.

As Yong Hye-in, a candidate for Minister of Gender Equality and Family, resigned from her candidacy due to controversy over concurrent positions, the existence of the semi-mixed proportional representation system, which served as the basis for her election through proportional representation in the 21st and 22nd general elections, is being discussed again. Amid criticism of the two major parties' use of satellite parties, the need for system reform is emerging, with the People Power Party calling for a complete abolition and the Democratic Party showing a reserved attitude. The Constitutional Court's decision to unconstitutional the 3% blocking clause is also expected to act as a variable.
