House Of Commons (South Korea)
The House of Representatives (Korean hangul: 민의원, hanja: 民議院) was the lower house of the National Assembly of South Korea during its First and Second Republics. The House of Representatives was established by the Constitution of the First Republic of Korea, which established a bicameral legislature. However, as the House of Councillors was never established during the First Republic, the House of Representatives acted as the only house in a unicameral legislature until the House of Councillors was actually established in the Second Republic.

Revised Romanization Of Korean
Revised Romanization of Korean () is the official Korean language romanization system in South Korea. It was developed by the National Academy of the Korean Language from 1995 and was released to the public on 7 July 2000 by South Korea's Ministry of Culture and Tourism in Proclamation No. 2000-8. The new system addressed problems in the implementation of the McCune–Reischauer system, such as the phenomena where different consonants and vowels became indistinguishable in the absence of special symbols. To be specific, under the McCune–Reischauer system, Korean consonants  ''(k)'',  ''(t)'',  ''(p)'' and  ''(ch)'' and  ''(kʼ)'',  ''(tʼ)'',  ''(pʼ)'' and  ''(chʼ)'' became indistinguishable when the apostrophe was removed. In addition, Korean vowels  ''(ŏ)'' and  ''(o)'', as well as  ''(ŭ)'' and  ''(u)'', became indistinguishable when the breve was removed. Especially in internet use, where omission of apostr ...

Democratic Party (South Korea, 1955)
The Democratic Party (, DP) was a political party in South Korea. The party was the first truly organized liberal opposition against Syngman Rhee's Liberal Party, and is considered as the predecessor to the lineage of the South Korean liberal parties. History The Democratic Party was established on 18 September 1955. It had its background in a 1952 move by the Democratic Nationalist Party to create a pro-reform movement that included both party members and outside figures. Although not initially successful in overcoming the party's poor public image, controversy over a constitutional amendment vote towards the end of 1954 led to the formation of a 60-member bloc in Parliament that became the Democratic Party.Haruhiro Fukui (1985) ''Political parties of Asia and the Pacific'', Greenwood Press, pp667–668 Several prominent conservatives joined the party, resulting in the party refusing to admit left-wing politicians. The party did not nominate a presidential candidate in the 195 ...

Liberal Party (South Korea)
The Liberal Party () was a far-right corporatist and anti-communist political party in South Korea established in 1951 by Syngman Rhee. History As the 1952 presidential elections neared, Rhee made public his intention to organize a party during his August 15 Speech in 1951. Rhee called Yi Bum-seok, then the ambassador in China, and charged him with creating the Liberal Party. Yi used the strong organizational base of " Korean National Youth Association" () as a starting point and incorporated the major five organizations: " National Association for the Rapid Realisation of Korean Independence" (), "Korean Federation of Labor" (), "Peasant Federation" (), and "Korean Council of Wives" () as temporary sub-organizations under the Liberal Party.
