Ask what Korea is talking about.

Kim Min-seok, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, said on October 23 that he is "preparing in his mind" for a possible Seoul mayoral by-election, according to Chosun Ilbo. His remarks came as the Seoul High Court was set to rule Friday on Mayor Oh Se-hoon's political funds trial; if the appeals court upholds a ruling that strips Oh of his mayoral post, a by-election could be held in April next year. Kim made the comments on the party's 'Democratic Party TV' program when asked about the expected outcome of Oh's appeal.
