Resolution criteria on PolyGram: This market will resolve to “Yes” if Jang Dong-hyeok ceases to be Leader of the People Power Party (PPP) for any period of time between market creation and the specified date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. An announcement of Jang Dong-hyeok's resignation/removal before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal goes into effect.

Market outcomes

Jang Dong-hyeok out as PPP Leader by June 30, 2026? 64% YES37% NO

Market context

Jang Dong-hyeok assumed leadership of South Korea's People Power Party (PPP) in September 2024, following the party's poor performance in legislative elections. The 74% implied probability on Polymarket's order book reflects substantial trader conviction that he will be removed or resign before 30 June 2026—a timeframe covering less than two years of his tenure. This probability is being formed by active trading on the platform's order book, where buyers of "Yes" contracts are pricing in meaningful risk of leadership transition within that window.

South Korean political parties have experienced frequent leadership changes, particularly when facing electoral setbacks or internal factional disputes. Park Geun-hye's tenure as Democratic Party leader lasted roughly two years before her 2012 presidential campaign transition; more recently, Lee Jun-seok's PPP leadership ended after approximately eighteen months amid party infighting in 2023. These precedents suggest that sub-two-year leadership cycles are not uncommon in Korean opposition politics, especially when parties seek to reposition themselves ahead of major elections or respond to internal pressure.

Traders should monitor several catalysts: the 2026 local elections scheduled for June, which could trigger leadership reassessment if results disappoint; factional disputes within the PPP between conservative and reformist wings; and any major political developments involving President Yoon Suk Yeol's administration, to which the PPP remains closely aligned. Recent reporting from Korean news outlets has documented ongoing tensions between Jang and senior party figures over strategic direction, though no imminent departure has been announced as of late 2024.

How this market resolves

Resolution is handled by the UMA optimistic oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour dispute window opens, and if no one stakes a counter-claim the payout is final. Contested outcomes escalate to UMA token-holder voting. Payouts clear in USDC to the winning side.

How to trade this market step by step

The mechanics for trading "Jang Dong-hyeok out as PPP Leader by June 30, 2026?" are the same as any other PolyGram event contract. Each YES share resolves to $1 if the event happens, or $0 if it doesn't. The current price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the market's probability estimate, set live by the order book.

  1. Sign in on polygram.ink with your email — no full KYC under $1,500 lifetime trading volume.
  2. Deposit USDC on Polygon (lowest fees, ~$0.01 per transaction) or Ethereum. Funds credit after 12 confirmations.
  3. Pick a side. Buy YES if you believe the event will happen; buy NO if you think it won't. The current YES price reflects the market's collective probability.
  4. Size your position. If you stake 100 USDC at 64% YES, you'll receive shares that pay $156 if YES resolves true — a 56% gross return. If NO resolves, your shares are worth $0.
  5. Set risk controls (optional). Stop-loss, take-profit, and limit-order types all supported. Use the trade ticket's slippage box to cap your maximum entry price.
  6. Wait for resolution. When the event resolves on-chain via the UMA optimistic oracle, the winning side settles to 100¢ automatically and USDC hits your balance within seconds. Withdrawable to any wallet you control.

How active is this market?

$3K in lifetime turnover and $710 of resting liquidity puts this market in the below the median by volume for south korea contracts on PolyGram. Order-book depth is thin — large orders may need to be split across the book or executed as limit orders.

Last 24 hours alone saw $493 in turnover, well above the lifetime daily-average for this market — a clear sign of news catalysing trader activity right now.

The market has been open for around a month — fresh enough that information asymmetry remains a real factor.

Higher-volume markets tend to have tighter spreads and faster price discovery — meaning the displayed YES/NO percentages are more likely to reflect the true crowd-implied probability rather than a single trader's directional view.

Key terms

YES / NO share
A binary outcome token that pays $1.00 if the underlying claim resolves true (YES) or false (NO), and $0 otherwise. The market price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the implied probability.
CLOB
Central limit order book. The matching engine that pairs YES buyers with NO buyers (effectively the same trade). Polymarket's CLOB on Polygon executes trades on-chain via the conditional-tokens framework.
Liquidity
USDC capital sitting in resting limit orders inside the order book. Deeper liquidity means smaller slippage on large trades and a tighter bid-ask spread.
UMA optimistic oracle
The on-chain dispute system that settles each Polymarket market. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution.
Slippage
The difference between the displayed mid-price and your fill price. Affects market orders most; limit orders avoid slippage but may take time to fill.
Conditional token
ERC-1155 outcome share issued by Gnosis Conditional Tokens on Polygon. The token type that resolves to $1.00 or $0.00 at settlement.

Risk and regulatory note

Prediction-market positions can lose 100% of staked capital. Outcomes are uncertain by definition — historical accuracy of crowd-implied probabilities is high in aggregate but not for any single market. PolyGram does not provide investment advice. Trade only with capital you can afford to lose.

Regulatory status varies by jurisdiction. Germany, the United States, and most EU countries treat Polymarket-style event contracts under one of three frameworks: financial derivative, gambling product, or unregulated novel asset. Consult local counsel before trading.
