“The intent of the law is that if there is a controversy that the investigation by the current investigation agency is not fair, the high-ranking public officials criminal investigation office (aircraft department) should take it to dispel the fairness controversy and produce a reliable result. The airlift is suited to this purpose. I will also make detailed rules and request a transfer (according to standards).”
The first press conference of the new Dean Jin-wook Kim, who received the decision of the Constitutional Affairs Department from the Constitutional Court, was focused on’case transfer’. This is because there are pros and cons about the possibility of repatriating the airlift in connection with the recent Kim Hak-do banning incident. Deputy Minister Kim, referring to the constitutional decision, was the opinion of each of the judges on Article 24, Paragraph 1 of the Airlift Act, that is, the mandatory transfer of airlift provisions.

Deputy Commissioner Kim cited his ability to experience criminal cases, including three years of warrants and two years of court in charge of corruption cases. It was an evaluation that he could complement himself with a constitutional major. Attorney Woo Byung-woo, former Blue House Chief Min Jeong-woo, participated as an attorney during the warrant deliberation in April 2017 to prevent arrest. At that time, the career of a female attorney dedicated to warrants attracted attention.
Deputy Commissioner Kim advocated that a female lawyer is also the right person in terms of political neutrality. He said, “(Female lawyer) is a person who is difficult to object to political neutrality and independence.” I did it indirectly.”
In fact, it also issued a message calling for the opposition party’s cooperation in the formation of the personnel committee, including the power of the people. “There is some concern that politically biased personnel will be appointed, but if the nominating committee members recommended by the ruling and opposition parties participate in the personnel committee and actively express their opinions, that will not happen.” We ask for your active cooperation.”
There is also an analysis that the opposition party may delay the recommendation for reasons of “taking time”, as the personnel committee of the Ministry of Public Transport is composed of 7 members: 1 person commissioned by the Minister of Public Transportation and the Deputy Director, 1 person appointed by the Director, 2 people recommended by the ruling party, and 2 people recommended by the opposition party. On the 20th, Deputy Minister Kim replied, “I think the opposition party will cooperate” to the question, “If the opposition party recommendation is delayed, will the personnel committee be enforced with 5 members?”
