[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Gyeonggi Province has appointed lawyer Kim Ji-ye as the head of the Fair Economy Division (Open Position No. 4).

Born in 1982, Director Kim graduated from Ewha Womans University with a degree in law and completed the 42nd class of the Judicial Research and Training Institute. She then worked at law firms Gipung, Taeyul, and Rodek Law Office.

Director Kim stated, "I will do my best to create a Gyeonggi Province where the core value of 'fairness,' the key principle of the 7th elected provincial government, breathes life," adding, "I will actively identify unfair cases in franchise and distribution sectors and prepare institutional improvement measures to create a safe Gyeonggi Province for consumers."
