South Korea's main opposition party has picked a former human rights lawyer who supports reconciliation with North Korea as its presidential candidate, according to a report of the Associated Press. The liberal Democratic United Party said Moon Jae-in won a party vote Sunday to become its candidate in the December election. Moon was the chief of staff for late President Roh Moo-hyun, who held summit talks with late North Korean leader Kim Jong Il in 2007. Moon said in an acceptance speech that he will pursue summit talks and economic cooperation with North Korea if he becomes president. Polls show the front runner is the conservative ruling party's candidate, Park Geun-hye.
