‘Appointment of candidates for the first high-ranking officials criminal investigation office (airport office) head (11am) → Announcement of a new candidate for the Ministry of Justice (2pm) → Announcement of the statement by the Blue House Chief Civil Engineer (3pm)’ 30 a day before the end of the year Japan and the Blue House were busy all day announcing a message to nominate and replace those who will be responsible for the’Second Round of Prosecution Reform’. President Moon Jae-in made clear his will to tighten the reins of the prosecution reform through a personnel announcement. It is meant to revive the power of the prosecution reform, which seems to have lost its power due to the’Chu-Yoon conflict,’ in line with the launch of the airlift. In a situation where personnel renewal to sequentially replace the cabinet and the Blue House staff is predicted, at least the replacement and nomination of those who will be responsible for the reform of the prosecution seems to reflect the intention that it will not last a year. President Moon nominated Kim Jin-wook, a senior researcher at the Constitutional Court as a candidate for the head of the Constitutional Court, and explained, “As he has various legal backgrounds in addition to judges, lawyers, and senior researcher at the constitution, he has expertise, balance, and capabilities.” Regarding the reason for the appointment of Park Bum-gye as a candidate for the Minister of Justice as a candidate for the Minister of Justice, “Based on the knowledge, legal expertise, strong willpower, and reform mind that I gained while working in the court, the government, and the National Assembly, I have completed the prosecution and legal reform and focused on human rights and public welfare. We expect to realize a fair society.” What is particularly noticeable from the personnel of the Minister of Public Transport and the Minister of Justice is that both candidates were from non-prosecutors (judges). The current government maintains the principle of appointing “non-prosecutors” to the Ministers of Justice (Park Sang, Cho, Kook, and Chu Mi-ae) who have jurisdiction over the prosecution, and the head of the airlift, given the role of checking the prosecution, also chose from the non-prosecutor. Regarding this, a Democratic Party member Jung-jin said, “The former prosecutor always has an organization-centered thought. Once the prosecution is an eternal prosecution, the expectation that the former prosecutor will reform the prosecution is hopeless,” he said. However, President Moon is expected to appoint Shin Hyun-soo, former chief of the National Intelligence Service, as the next chief civilian prosecutor, and discuss the issues with him who knows the prosecution well. It is also predicted that the future prosecution reform strategy of the Blue House will be a little different from that of Minister Chu Mi-ae. A key official in the passport said, “The lesson of the Chu-Yun incident is that there is no need to reform the prosecution in Seocho-dong (Swordsman) and Gwacheon (Ministry of Justice). In the passport and the Blue House, there is a consensus that legislation is the core in the end.” “The tone will change toward avoiding useless fights with the prosecution and skillfully exercising personnel, administration, and supervisory rights. It seems that the Blue House judged it.” Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, etc., who remain in office for more than six months, is a strategy of thorough disregard and isolation strategy using personnel rights, and from the new year, the prosecution will change by fully utilizing the seats of the ruling party, which is the overwhelming majority of 174 seats. Another official in the passport also said, “Minister Chu has left, and the remaining General Yoon may continue to suffer political controversy. “If the government and the ruling party continue to reduce the prosecution’s authority and increase the checklist, the public opinion inside the prosecution towards Yoon will not be good,” he predicted. It is also striking that the Blue House simultaneously announced that the key staff members, including the chief of the secretary, had expressed their gratitude. Chung Man-ho, chief of national communication at the Blue House, said in a briefing that day, “Secretary Officer Roh Young-min, Policy Officer Kim Sang-jo, and Chief Executive Officer Kim Jong-ho expressed their appreciation in the sense that they hoped to ease the burden of managing the state administration on President Moon today, and to use it as an opportunity to renew the state administration.” Said. Although there was a bursting sound in the prosecution reform field, it seems that the larger reason for the worsening of public sentiment in the late term of office is the spread of Corona 19 and the resulting damage, and other issues such as soaring apartment and jeonse prices. In particular, as the controversy over the supply of vaccines added to the confusion in the real estate market, Kim was criticized even in the ruling party for “not playing a role as a control tower.” In the process of disposing of multi-households in August, Director Roh also expressed his appreciation once in the process of disposing of Cheongju houses rather than Gangnam apartments, receiving fierce criticism. Regarding the declaration of chief physician Kim Jong-ho, who has been appointed for only four months, Chief Man-ho Jeong said, “I know that it contains the intention to take responsibility as the chief executive officer for the series of confusion that occurred during the recent prosecution reform process.” Meanwhile, with regard to President Moon’s appointment of candidates for Justice Minister Park Beom-gye and Environment Minister Han Jeong-ae, spokesman Kim Ye-ryeong of People’s Power said, “This is a bounty reorganization given to the ruling party that faithfully fulfilled the regime’s instructions.” Are you listening?” By Lee Wan, Seo Young-ji, and Jeong Hwan-bong, staff reporter [email protected]
