The Court Administration, which is in charge of all the affairs of courts across the country, held an emergency meeting at the Supreme Court after discussing real-time countermeasures online in the "dawn riot" that targeted the judiciary.

And I issued a statement expressing concern and regret that this intrusion should not be a total denial of the rule of law and a significant challenge, nor should it be tolerated.

Chun Dae-yup, the head of the court administration who visited the Seoul Western District Court in person, said, "It is 10 times and 20 times more horrible than what I saw on TV."

Damage such as vandalism was confirmed not only on the first floor of the building where civil petitioners usually come and go, but also on the fifth, sixth and seventh floors where judges and court officials work.

[Cheon Dae-yeop / Chief of Court Administration of the Supreme Court: This is a total fraud against our rule of law and a serious felony even in criminal terms.]

Chief Cheon Dae-yup said that the judiciary should ensure that there is no inconvenience in restoring rights through trial under any circumstances, and that he will try to make normal work possible even if he stays up all night.

The head of the court administration also visited the National Police Agency and shared a sense of crisis about the damage to the rule of law, saying that the police are the front line of the rule of law and the court is the last bastion of the rule of law.
