SEOUL, March 17 (Yonhap) -- Rep. Yoo Seong-min and Gyeonggi Gov. Nam Kyung-pil joined the presidential primary of the Bareun Party on Friday as the minor conservative group closed candidate registration.
The Bareun Party spun off from the Liberty Korea Party earlier this year amid the factional dispute among former President Park Geun-hye's supporters and dissenters.
They will begin campaigning Saturday. The party will select a single candidate March 28 after conducting an opinion poll on March 26-27.
