Agreement on reform bills

Floor leaders of four major political parties, with the absence of the main opposition Liberty Korea Party (LKP), speak to reporters after reaching an agreement to fast-track bills on electoral reform and the establishment of a new investigative unit handling cases related to ranking government officials and the President's relatives, at the National Assembly, Monday. Each of the four parties will hold a general meeting next week to seek the floor leaders' agreement. After that, the parties will put the bills to votes at an Assembly session. The LKP, which has boycotted the reform talks, vowed to prevent the passage of the bills, likening the four parties' move to a coup. From left are Reps. Youn So-ha of the Justice Party, Chang Byoung-wan of the Party for Democracy and Peace, Hong Young-pyo of the Democratic Party of Korea and Kim Kwan-young of the Bareunmirae Party. Yonhap

Return to work

South Gyeongsang Province Governor Kim Kyoung-soo arrives for work at his office in Changwon, Thursday, a day after being released on bail after 77 days of detention for online opinion-rigging charges. He was sentenced to two years in prison in January for colluding with a blogger to carry out an illicit operation to sway online public opinion in favor of then-presidential candidate Moon Jae-in before the 2017 presidential election. The appeals court approved bail, saying he was unlikely to flee or destroy evidence. /Yonhap
