SEOUL -- South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol's ruling party suffered a drubbing in legislative elections held on Wednesday, with the main opposition party increasing its majority in the National Assembly and casting a cloud over the remainder of his term in office.
With 100% of votes for directly elected constituencies counted, the Democratic Party was on top in 161 districts, ahead of Yoon's People Power Party's 90, according to National Election Commission data compiled by broadcaster JTBC. The totals do not include proportional representation seats still to be determined.
