The Bareun Party (Hangul: 바른정당; Hanja: 바른政黨; RR: bareun jeongdang; lit. Righteous Party) is a centre-right conservative political party in South Korea, announced on 27 December 2016 with the defection of 29 anti-Park Saenuri Party lawmakers, it was known as the Conservative New Party for Reform until January 8, 2017.
The party was formed following a pro-Park Geun-hye MP becoming the new Saenuri Party's floor leader in the National Assembly, the pro-Park assembly groups wanted to force MPs to vote against the motion of Impeachment of Park Geun-hye. The split was preceded by increasing tension between the pro-Park and anti-Park factions within the party, especially created from the 2016 South Korean political scandal involving Park.
