While Justice Minister Park Beom-gye has minimized the number of senior prosecutors’ personnel, it is predicted that the number of deputy general prosecutors and chief prosecutors who will be executed soon will be limited. In summary, on the 8th, the Ministry of Justice will announce the personnel of the vice-president and prosecutors after the Lunar New Year holidays. Deputy/deputy prosecutors are the middle managers of the prosecution and play a practical role in directing and in charge of investigations on the front line. However, as the Ministry of Justice emphasized’organizational stability’ through a press release the previous day, there is no significant change in follow-up personnel. Minister Park said, “If there are any insufficiency, please understand, even at a meeting with the National Assembly representative Joo Ho-young, the power of the people. This greeting is very small, so I will try to reflect what I was concerned about when greeting in July.” This is a notice that there will be a more widespread greeting at the greeting in July, when the term of prosecutor general Yoon Seok-yeol ends after proceeding slightly. The most notable position in this mid-level executive level is the 1st Deputy Chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office. Former Deputy Prosecutor Kim Wook-jun expressed his appreciation in December last year, and it is currently vacant. Under the 1st deputy general manager, major investigations are underway, such as the case of prosecution and speech collusion in Channel A and the assault of the driver of the Vice Minister of Justice Lee Yong-gu. With Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office Lee Seong-yoon in office, it is predicted that a prosecutor who reflects Lee’s intention will be appointed as the first deputy general prosecutor. Another point to watch is whether Park Eun-jung will be replaced by the inspector in charge of the Ministry of Justice. Park, an aide to former Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae, disregarded the opinions of prosecutors in the prosecutor’s office, and proceeded to inspect President Yoon, creating an internal conflict. One prosecution officer predicted, “From the new minister’s point of view, it would be burdensome to hold Park in charge as an official in the Ministry of Justice, so there is a possibility to greet outside with the shape of a promotion.” The fact that Sim Jae-cheol, the Prosecutor General of the Ministry of Justice, who led the discipline of President Yoon along with Park, moved to Seoul Southern District Prosecutor’s Office the day before, is a factor that weighs on these observations. Meanwhile, on the way to the Ministry of Justice this morning, Minister Park refuted the controversy that he announced the senior prosecution officer’s personnel without prior notice to the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office. did. Minister Park continued, “(Shim Jae-cheol) replaced the prosecutor’s office, and the new prosecutor’s office appointed a person who served as the head of the chief prosecutor’s office, the chief prosecutor’s office. As the new head of the planning and coordination department, the president appointed a person he wanted, and the Daejeon District Prosecutor’s Office stayed there.
