[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyung-min] Chief Justice Kim Myung-soo emphasized that "to realize the true meaning and value of the rule of law, it is essential to create legitimate laws through proper procedures in the legislative process and to enforce the law fairly without privilege or discrimination."

On the morning of the 25th, Chief Justice Kim attended the '59th Law Day Ceremony' held at the Government Seoul Office and stated, "The ideology of the rule of law means that governance is not based on arbitrary power or personal will, but on fair and objective norms agreed upon by the sovereign people."

He added, "Legal professionals have a heavy responsibility to heal the increasingly deepening conflicts between classes and generations by mediating the complex and diverse interests in our society through the rule of law, and to pursue harmony within our society."
