South Korea's People Power Party (PPP, the main opposition party) has selected incumbent Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon as its candidate for the Seoul mayoral race in the June 3 local elections, defeating two rivals in a three-way primary. Oh will face Democratic Party candidate Chong Won-o in the general vote. If successful, it would mark Oh's third consecutive term and fifth overall as mayor of the South Korean capital, having first held the post in 2006 before a decade-long absence from politics and a return to City Hall following a 2021 by-election victory.
