▲ Citizens participate in a rally calling for impeachment in front of the National Assembly in Yeouido, Seoul, in December 2024, after the impeachment motion against President Yoon Suk Yeol was passed.
The Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced that the presidential 'Light Committee' held its first meeting and has officially begun its operations.
The committee consists of 25 members in total, including 15 private-sector members—such as Chairperson Park Mi-kyung, co-chair of the Gwangju Federation for Environmental Movement—and the ministers of 10 government departments, including the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the Ministry of Science and ICT, and the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.
During the meeting held today (July 13), the committee deliberated on the 'Basic Plan for Managing Records of the Light Revolution.'
In addition to record management, the committee plans to pursue projects such as designating a commemorative day for the Light Revolution and installing symbolic monuments.
The Light Revolution refers to the non-violent resistance of citizens against the December 3 martial law declaration.
Chairperson Park Mi-kyung stated, "Beyond record management projects, we will take the lead in achieving true national unity through various commemorative activities, establishing the values of citizen-participatory K-democracy, and spreading them across the world."
