It was announced on the 29th that President Moon Jae-in made up his mind to appoint Kim Jin-wook (54, 21st Judicial Research and Training Institute) senior researcher at the Constitutional Court as the first chief of the criminal investigations for high-ranking officials. President Moon is expected to replace Justice Minister Chu Miae at the same time while appointing Researcher Kim on the 30th. One or three ministerial-level personnel are also promisingly discussed.

Appointment of’from judge’ reconfirms the keynote of’post-prosecution’
A key official of multiple passports told the Hankook Ilbo on the 29th that “President Moon will appoint researcher Kim Jin-wook as head of the airlift.” One official said, “There is a 99% chance that researcher Kim will be dropped.” Lee Geon-ri (57, 16th Judicial Research and Training Institute) selects a non-prosecution candidate among the two finalists, including the vice chairman of the National Rights Commission.
A high-ranking government official said, “This vice-chairman was also evaluated as a good candidate, but I know that he considered the big direction of’distance from the prosecution’ first.” Researcher Kim worked as a judge for three years from 1995, and then moved to Kim & Chang Law Office. Since 2010, he has worked in the Constitutional Court.
When Researcher Kim is appointed in January of next year after a personnel hearing of the National Assembly, the’launch of the airlift,’ which is the aspiration of the Moon Jae-in administration and the key to reform of the prosecution, will be achieved after long labor.

Autumn change at the same time… Announced in conjunction with the Ministry of Environment
President Moon appoints a successor candidate for the Justice Minister while accepting the resignation of Minister Chu. According to the big direction that a strong Justice Minister who is a non-prosecutor and will lead the’Prosecution Reform Season 2′, Park Bum-gye, a former judge and Democratic Party lawmaker, was first mentioned, but the actual appointment was uncertain due to personal information. It is the observation of personnel. Now, there is a possibility that a senior member of the Democratic Party will be selected.
President Moon has taken a cautious stance on one-point personnel, fearing that Minister Chu will appear to be scornful with the responsibility for the failure to discipline Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol. Accordingly, it is reported that one to three minister-level personnel such as Environment Minister Cho Min-rae and Minister of National Veterans Affairs Park Sam-deuk will be replaced together.
Minister Cho is known to have recently emerged as a’longevity minister’ who started his term in November 2018, and as a successor, a person who will realize the ‘2050 carbon neutrality’ declared by President Moon Jae-in has recently emerged. There is a conflict between the observation that a politician minister will be chosen to pass the safe verification regime and that a scholar who is well-versed in the low-carbon field or personnel from civic groups will be employed.
Initially, Park Yang-woo, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and Kim Hyun-soo, the Minister of Food, Agriculture, Forestry, and Food, were also considering a change within this year, but the verification of the successor was delayed.
Accordingly, full-fledged personal renewal, such as the reorganization of the government and the reorganization of the Blue House, which was twisted into the’Chumi-ae and Yoon Seok-yeol incident’, was delayed to next month. A passport official said, “I know that it has been arranged to increase the scale when additional refurbishment is done early next year.”
