Ask what Korea is talking about.

President Lee Jae Myung is mulling over selecting a justice minister nominee from between two prosecutor-turned-lawmakers, after his previous pick withdrew last month over lobbying allegations, Yonhap and the Korea Times report. Maeil Business reports the candidates have been narrowed to two ruling party lawmakers, Park Gyun-taek and Yang Bu-nam, both former senior prosecutors, with the justice minister post vacant for two months amid a reorganization of the criminal justice system with the launch of the prosecution and serious crimes offices.
