With the exception of the candidates for the largest opposition, the National Forces Party, which has yet to be announced, the candidates for the other four opposition parties have been finalized.

Former Attorney General Yoon Seok-yue, Mphong Joon-wook, former MP Yoo Seung-min, and former Jeju Governor Won Hee-yong will compete for this qualification.
