Tak Hyun-min Likely to Be Appointed as Cheong Protocol Secretary... Returns After 1 Year and 4 Months

[Asia Economy Reporter Son Sunhee] It was reported on the 26th that Tak Hyunmin, presidential event planning advisory committee member, is expected to return soon after being appointed as the Blue House Protocol Secretary. This comes about 1 year and 4 months after his resignation in January last year.

As a performance planning expert, Tak served as a senior administrative officer in the Blue House Protocol Secretary’s Office at the start of the Moon Jae-in administration. Even after his resignation last year, he was appointed as an advisory committee member and took charge of planning major presidential events such as the March 1st Independence Movement Day ceremony and the 40th anniversary ceremony of the May 18 Democratic Uprising.

Park Sanghoon, the current Protocol Secretary seconded from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, is reportedly preparing for dispatch as a head of an overseas diplomatic mission.

Meanwhile, the Blue House is said to be making some secretary-level personnel changes under the Office of Public Communication. Han Jungwoo, the current Chunghwagwan Director, is appointed as the Public Relations Planning Secretary, and Kim Jaejun, senior administrative officer of the First Secretariat, is appointed as the new Chunghwagwan Director.
