On the 29th, President Yoon Suk-yeol received a report on the reorganization of the National Intelligence Service (NIS) from Director Kim Gyu-hyun and key executives.


The National Security Office stated that after receiving the report, President Yoon urged them to "devote their utmost efforts for national security and the safety of the people."



Since Director Kim had recently faced dismissal rumors due to the NIS 'personnel turmoil,' the report to President Yoon on this day is interpreted as confirmation that Director Kim has been retained.
