韓国国会の初総会は、与党と主要野党が立法・司法委員会を含む国会常任委員会の設置について合意に至らなかったため、与党抜きで一方的に開会された。 South Korea's National Assembly's first plenary meeting opened unilaterally without the ruling party as ruling and main opposition parties failed to reach an agreement on forming parliamentary standing committees, including the legislation and judiciary committee. 最大野党「共に民主党」の禹元植氏が前例のない形で議長に選出された。これは韓国史上初のことだ。 Woo Won-shik of the main opposition Democratic Party was elected speaker in an unprecedented move, marking the first time in the country's history. 両者は法定期限まで交渉を続ける予定だ。 The two parties will continue to negotiate until the legal deadline.
