People's Party of Korea

The People's Party of Korea (hangul: 조선인민당 , hanja: 朝鮮人民黨 ) was a moderate left-wing political party created on November 12, 1945 by Lyuh Woon-Hyung. The People's Party did not claim to exclusively represent a particular class, instead it tried to represent the entire Korean people.

As the Soviet-US Committee failed in 1946, a faction within the People's Party called forty-eighters left the party and formed the Workers Party of South Korea (남조선로동당), in a coalition with Communist Party of South Korea (조선공산당) and New People's Party (신민당). The People's Party dissolved soon thereafter, and Lyuh later formed Socialist Labourer's Party(사회로동당).
