[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Seok-jin] Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol visited the National Seoul Memorial Cemetery on the 4th to pay respects and expressed his determination to create a righteous prosecution service.


On the morning of the New Year, Prosecutor General Yoon visited the Seoul Memorial Cemetery in Dongjak-dong, offered flowers and incense at the Memorial Tower, honored the spirits of the patriotic martyrs and national heroes, and wrote in the guestbook, "I will uphold the will of the patriots who devoted themselves to the country and create a righteous prosecution service."


Usually, the Prosecutor General's New Year visit is accompanied by senior prosecutors (chief prosecutors) from the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, but this year, due to the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), only a minimal number of people, including Deputy Prosecutor General Cho Nam-gwan, Seoul High Prosecutors' Office Chief Cho Sang-chul, Supreme Prosecutors' Office Director Bok Du-gyu, and Seoul High Prosecutors' Office Director Jeong Yeon-ik, participated.



Considering the COVID-19 situation, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office also decided not to hold the opening ceremony on that day.
