"Jomin's Admission Cancellation to Busan National University Medical School Upheld"... Court Dismisses Jo's Administrative Lawsuit in First Trial

Cho Min, the daughter of former Minister of Justice Cho Kuk, has lost her status as a graduate of the Busan National University School of Medicine.

The Administrative Division 1 of the Busan District Court dismissed the plaintiff's claim on the 6th in the administrative lawsuit filed by Cho against Busan National University.

Cho had previously filed a lawsuit challenging the cancellation of her admission to the Busan National University School of Medicine, and on this day, the court ruled in the first trial that the cancellation was justified, dismissing Cho's claim.

Accordingly, Cho will lose her admission status and graduate status from the medical school 30 days after receiving the judgment. However, since Cho can file an appeal and simultaneously request a suspension of execution, it will take more time before the cancellation of admission is finalized.

Busan National University canceled Cho's admission to the medical school in April of last year.

The university stated at the time, "We finalized the cancellation of admission based on the new student recruitment guidelines stating 'admission will be canceled if false documents are submitted' and the court ruling that the certificate of commendation from Dongyang University’s president was forged or false."

In response, Cho filed a request for suspension of execution of the admission cancellation and a lawsuit against Busan National University.
