The New Democratic Republican Party (Korean: 신민주공화당, romanized: Sin-minju-gonghwa-dang) was a South Korean conservative[3] political party which formed in 1987 and dissolved in 1990. It was particularly strong in Hoseo, the home region of party leader Kim Jong-pil. However, it merged with two other parties in 1990 to form the Democratic Liberal Party.

The ruling conservative Democratic Justice Party of President Roh Tae Woo agreed to merge with two minority opposition parties, the moderate reformist Reunification Democratic Party of Kim Young Sam and the right-wing New Democratic Republican Party of Kim Jong Pil, to create the Democratic Liberal Party (DLP), changing from a presidential to a parliamentary system.

Although Kim Jong-pil was ostracized along with two other Kims by the previous Chun regime, still the NDRP and the governing DJP (with a military background) shared a homogeneous political orientation in conservatism.
