Civilian
In May 1965 the two largest opposition parties in the parliament, former president Yun Posun's Civil Rule Party (CRP) and stateswoman Park Soon-cheon's Democratic Party (DP), joined to create the People's Party (PP), forming a united opposition against President Park Chung Hee's military dictatorship.
However, in 1965 the radical wing of the People's Party led by Yun left the party, later forming the New Korea Party (NKP) in 1966. The NKP and nominated Yun for president. The remaining members of the People's Party, the moderates led by Park Sang-cheon, nominated former president of Korea University Yu Jin-oh.
Fearing that running two candidates to represent the civilian field might result in Park winning easily, the two parties decided to join forces and created the New Democratic Party (NDP) on 7 February, agreeing to nominate Yun as its candidate.http://encykorea.aks.ac.kr/Contents/Item/E0020310 민중당(民衆黨) Encyclopedia of Korean Culture ko 21 April 2018http://news.joins.com/article/1105798 신민당 통합창당대통령후보 윤보선·당수 유진오씨 7 February 1967 JoongAng Ilbo 21 April 2018 ko-KR
