The party supported President Roh Tae-woo and included among its members former opposition leader Kim Young-sam and former Prime Minister of South Korea Kim Jong-pil.

The leading opposition party was the Democratic Party. It was formed in 1991 through the merger of the Party for Peace and Democracy led by Kim Dae Jung and former members of the NDRP with the minor Democratic Party. The party was co-led by Kim and Lee Kitack.

The Unification National Party was a conservative, pro-business party led by businessmen Chung Ju Yung. The party campaigned heavily on the issue of the economy and the poor record of President Woo's government.
