[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyung-min] Song Kyung-ho, Chief Prosecutor of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, urged the members on the 4th to "devote themselves to uncovering the substantive truth while protecting the human rights of the people and adhering to due process."

At the prosecutor transfer ceremony held at the Central Prosecutors' Office building in Seocho-dong, Seoul, in the afternoon, Chief Prosecutor Song said, "Although the prosecution is facing many difficult conditions, it is precisely at times like this that we must faithfully perform our fundamental duties."

He added, "Furthermore, we must enforce criminal law that aligns with the common sense of the people and become a 'fair and warm prosecution that upholds common sense.'” He continued, "Since the investigation and trial environment has changed significantly recently, the mid-level executives of the Central Prosecutors' Office should always be aware of these changes as experts in investigation and prosecution maintenance, and strive to provide meticulous and warm guidance so that they can respond effectively together with their juniors."

Chief Prosecutor Song emphasized, "Since you have been transferred to the Central Prosecutors' Office in recognition of your achievements and leadership, please do your best by demonstrating the capabilities you have accumulated. All members should work towards a healthy and vibrant organization by uniting and harmonizing through mutual respect, consideration, listening, and persuasion."
