Centrist reformism () is a South Korean political ideology. It is part of South Korea's centrist tradition.

History

The first party to put "Jungdogaehyeok" as the main ideology of the party was the liberal Peace Democratic Party, led by Kim Dae-jung in 1987. But when the National Congress for New Politics was founded in 1995, it emphasized: "moderate conservatives" () more than "Jungdogaehyeok" to gain more support from conservatives. However, since the social liberal Roh Moo-hyun government, the term has not been used frequently for some time.
