The National Police Agency announced that Commissioner Kim had expressed his intention to resign on the morning of the same day. This is interpreted as taking responsibility for the reversal of the police superintendent personnel appointments, which escalated to President Yoon Seok-yeol criticizing it as a "disorder of national discipline," amid the recent intensification of the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's moves to control the police and the internal calls for voluntary retirement. Commissioner Kim plans to reveal detailed remarks regarding his resignation after the press briefing by Minister Lee Sang-min of the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, scheduled for 11 a.m. that day.
