Another year later, he resigned for the upcoming general election. In 2020 general election where two major parties absolutely dominated constituency races all across the country, Jung was elected receiving the majority of votes cast. In June 2020 Jung was appointed by then-party leader Lee Hae-chan as a standing deputy chair of its Policy Planning Committee and a month later a director of the planning team of its K-New Deal Committee.
