Following Yoon Seok-yeol's impeachment for declaring illegal martial law, an election was held to choose new president. Lee Jae-myung, leader of the opposition party and survivor of last year's assassination attempt, handily won against PPP candidate Kim Moon-soo.

In June 2022, the Democratic Party of Korea was facing an uphill battle after narrow defeat in the presidential election three months earlier. Gyeonggi Province, the home province of former candidate Lee Jae-myung, was no exception. Yet, DPK managed to clinch a narrow victory.
