South Korean prime minister offers to resign after parliamentary election defeat

This is the best summary I could come up with:

That will most likely set back Yoon’s domestic agenda and weaken his grip on the ruling party as he faces the opposition’s intensifying political offensive during his remaining three years in office, experts say.

Hong Sung Gul, a public administration expert at Seoul’s Kookmin University, said Yoon will most likely find it more difficult to implement business-friendly policies and tax reforms, as the opposition parties are likely to aggressively flex their legislative muscles.

Yoon’s critics have accused him of failing to resolve livelihood issues such as soaring prices, refusing to quickly fire some top officials implicated in scandals, and lacking efforts to communicate with opposition leaders for policy coordination.

Earlier this year, Yoon briefly enjoyed rising approval ratings over his strong push to drastically increase the number of medical students despite vehement protests by incumbent doctors.

But the doctors’ walkouts eventually left Yoon facing growing calls to find a compromise, with patients and others experiencing delays of surgeries and other inconveniences.

The rival parties’ campaigning ahead of Wednesday’s elections deepened South Korea’s already serious conservative-liberal divide as they exchanged toxic rhetoric and mudslinging.
