Presidential primaries were held by the Democratic Party of Korea from 10 – 27 April 2025 to select the party's nominee for the snap 2025 South Korean presidential election, which was held on 3 June. The primary was held after President Yoon Suk Yeol was impeached and removed from office on 4 April, immediately requiring a snap election to determine the country's 14th president. After Yoon's impeachment, three candidates declared their candidacy for the DPK nomination. The primary was held concurrently with the primary of the opposition People Power Party.
On 27 April, the party nominated former DPK leader Lee Jae Myung after a landslide victory in the primaries.
