Hey there! Have you ever wondered how countries are run? Let’s dive into the exciting world of South Korea’s government!
Who Leads South Korea?
South Korea is led by a President. As of my last update in October 2023, the President is Yoon Suk-yeol. The President is like the captain of a ship, steering the country in the right direction!
What’s a Political Party?
Just like you might have different clubs at school, South Korea has different political parties. These parties have ideas about what’s best for the country.
The Ruling Party and the Opposition
The party with the most seats in the National Assembly (South Korea’s parliament) is called the ruling party. They work closely with the President to make laws. Other parties are called opposition parties. They also help make laws and keep an eye on the ruling party to make sure everything is fair.
Why Is This Important?
Understanding how governments work helps us appreciate how decisions are made that affect our daily lives. Who knows? Maybe one day you’ll be a leader making a difference!
