Seoul, September 14 - Supreme Court Justice nominee Kim Sung-soo pledged on Monday to make efforts to help the judiciary keep pace with changing times, emphasizing the importance of not falling behind societal advancements. Addressing his parliamentary confirmation hearing at the National Assembly, Kim stated that he would contribute, even in a small way, to ensure the judiciary remains up-to-date with the rapid changes in society.
He noted that our society is undergoing significant transformations and the judiciary, which safeguards people's rights, should not lag behind. Supreme Court Chief Justice Cho Hee-dae had recommended Kim and another judge to become new justices on the top court to the president last month. However, President Lee Jae Myung only referred Kim to the National Assembly for approval, citing that the recommendation of the other judge lacked procedural completeness.
