          It appeared that the opposition Democratic Party, along with a party allied to it, would win far more than half of the 300 seats in the National Assembly. The Democratic Party’s candidate for president, Lee Jae-myung, narrowly lost to Yoon in 2022. Yoon’s People Power Party and its satellite party were expected to win more than 100 seats, according to

          Prime Minister Han Duck-soo and all of Yoon’s senior advisers, except those in charge of security issues, have offered to resign, The A.P. reported. Yoon’s office did not immediately say whether the resignations had been accepted.

          Missteps by Yoon and opposition control of Parliament have stalled his business-friendly domestic agenda, and his goals will remain imperiled by the lopsided election results. In contrast, Lee, who hopes to run for president again in 2027, is likely to get a big push from the election.
