The New Korea Party (Korean신한국당; Hanja新韓國黨; RRShinhangukdang; MRShinhankuktang; NKP) was founded by the merging of Roh Tae-woo's Democratic Justice Party, Kim Young-sam's Reunification Democratic Party and Kim Jong-pil's New Democratic Republican Party to form the Democratic Liberal Party (Korean민주자유당; Hanja民主自由黨; RRMinjujayudang; MRMinjuchayutang; DLP). It was renamed to New Korea Party in 1995.[5]

In 1997, the NKP merged with the Democratic Party to form the Grand National Party.
