Yoon Sang-hyun calls for conservative unity in South Korea
South Korean lawmaker Yoon Sang-hyun called for conservative groups to unite at a political reform forum.
He proposed a “BTS alliance,” short for “Band Together Stronger,” and pointed to a possible grouping of Oh Se-hoon, Han Dong-hoon and Lee Jun-seok.
Yoon said conservatives were fighting separately across the People Power Party, the Reform Party and among independent lawmaker Han Dong-hoon.
He argued that shared values and a common agenda matter more than an alliance of personalities alone.
Yoon urged People Power Party leader Jang Dong-hyuk to create a platform for conservative unity.
He said building a broader conservative alliance would be difficult, but necessary to bring the group together; no further steps were specified.

What people are saying
Our conservative camp’s biggest topic is conservative unity.
Band Together Stronger, meaning that we become stronger when we come together.
More important than an alliance of people is an alliance of values and vision.
Creating it is what leadership and politics are about.
