Talk:National Assembly (South Korea)

message: Why not Gukhoe? Because the "National Assembly" is the official English name of the legislature (see official website: http://korea.na.go.kr ), and Gukhoe, the direct transliteration from Korean language does not convey any meaning to English speakers. --Nudimmud (talk) 01:51, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reverting the title back to the "National Assembly of South Korea" 

message: The current title "National Assembly (South Korea)" is awkward - it means that the name of the article can never be linked without being piped. Restoring "National Assembly of South Korea" addresses this problem. The article was moved last September without discussion, but with the explanation "proper term per constitution". I really doubt that the South Korean constitution refers to the assembly as "National Assembly (South Korea)", especially since South Korea calls itself "Republic of Korea". Finally, WP:TITLE says: "the ideal article title resembles titles for similar articles, precisely identifies the subject, and is short, natural, and recognizable."  "National Assembly of South Korea" covers all of these principles. Ground Zero | t 15:41, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Reason: I think time has come to finish the long-forgotten (or ignored) question: Is  free?  I doubt its freeness, based on the fact that we do not have definite answer for Template talk:KOGL#Free?. To save your click...    We, as of 2018, do not have a final answer for this. And this means, we have to delete these images, including some VIs and FPs.

message: Why when the Democratic Party of Korea has a majority of the seats in the National Assembly is it not in government but the People Power Party who have a minority are running a minority government according to what is stated in the infobox? According to 2020 South Korean legislative election the Democratic Party of Korea won the last legislative election in a landslide victory and still retain a majority of seats. So why aren't they running the government? Is it because Yoon Suk-yeol won the 2022 South Korean presidential election as part of the People Power Party and so the party who run the presidency then is then given the right to govern in the legislature? Or is there another explanation like the Democratic Party of Korea gave up its role in government or that what is stated in the infobox is a mistake? It would be very helpful if this could be explained, especially in this article itself. Helper201 (talk) 15:56, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Bump, this would be very helpful and remains relevant. I have also been unable to find an explanation across other politics of South Korea wiki pages Jacsam2 (talk) 10:59, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

text: In Korea, the party who holds the presidency is considered "in government" and all other parties are then considered "in opposition". This is from the words "여당" and "야당". The number of seats is irrelevant. This does not affect the number designation a party is given for elections. -boldblazer  23:14, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  please add this explanation to the page while also including a reliable source as a citation that supports your claim. Helper201 (talk) 23:42, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you really need to explain that a president controls the government in a presidential republic on a page about the legislature? boldblazer  23:56, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I think a brief, sourced explanation would be beneficial to readers, so yes. Helper201 (talk) 20:05, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

text: Yes, since generally even in a Presidential Republic the party of the President does not determine the composition of the government; SK should, like the United States, be considered to have a Divided Government, with the Democratic Party being the government in terms of the legislature, but with a President from the PPP.
