The winner of the 20th presidential election, Yoon Suk-Yeol, will serve as the President of the Republic of Korea for the next five years from May 10, 2022, to May 9, 2027.
We have translated the statement by the chairman of the Presidential Transition Committee for the President-elect, Ahn Cheol-Soo, posted on the 20th Presidential Transition Committee’s official homepage.
The chairman stated, “We must strive for national unity” as one of the five critical issues which must be addressed while preparing the national blueprint for the new administration. What is the most divisive issue in South Korea today? We believe it is dog meat consumption. As long as this conflict is not resolved by ending it completely and permanently, the Korean people will continue to be divided, waste their national resources, and cause anger and shame in their people. Until the South Koreans and their government acknowledge this and take action, we will continue our campaign to pressure the Korean government to end this cruel industry.
