SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's conservative People Power Party on Saturday picked former labour minister Kim Moon-soo as its candidate for the June 3 presidential election, which was called after the removal of Yoon Suk Yeol over his failed attempt to impose martial law.
Kim will face liberal Democratic Party candidate Lee Jae-myung, who has led each of the declared conservative candidates by large double-digit margins in polls.
