[Capture News] Extreme Activities in South Korea Threatens 'State Existence'

The court administration agreed with the perception that the first court intrusion in constitutional history was actually a riot.

[Seo Young-kyo / Minjoo Party Member: These are riots, riots. Is it right?]

[Bae Hyungwon / Deputy Director of Court Administration: Yes, that's right]

The Supreme Court also convened an emergency meeting of Supreme Court justices.

The Supreme Court judges called it a total cheating not only on the rule of law but also on all constitutional institutions, and said it was a serious issue that could threaten the existence of the state.

[Cheon Dae-yeop / Head of the Court Administration: He expressed a lot of concern that Korea cannot exist if the rule of law is ignored and extreme actions become commonplace]

At this meeting of the Supreme Court justices, there was also a voice of self-reflection.

If even some citizens do not trust the speed, fairness, and equity of the trial, the judiciary should reflect more and work harder.

Some have suggested that a warrant trial needs to supplement the current judicial system, which is perceived as determining all trial procedures.

[Cheon Dae-yeop / Chief of Court Administration: The judicial system that is understood and accepted by the public is clearly necessary to amend it like an advanced country (we will also review the proposed legislation)]

The Supreme Court justices said they will do their best to increase trust through communication and improvement of the system, and asked the people to believe in the role of the judiciary and respect their judgment.
