(CNN) -- South Korea's prime minister has offered to resign for a second time, the prime minister's office said Thursday, after failure to win parliamentary approval to stop relocation of government offices out of the capital, Seoul.
"I personally greatly regret that I couldn't complete the Sejong project, even though I've revised the project," Prime Minister Chung Un-chan said in a statement on his website. "I feel guilty that I couldn't prevent the waste of government resources and disorder it will bring (to the government)".
It was not immediately clear if President Lee Myung-bak would accept Chan's resignation.
