Prime Minister Kim Min-seok announced on June 19 that he plans to push for the passage of a "one-point constitutional amendment" aimed at reforming the Election Commission through public discourse, whether initiated by the president or the National Assembly.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Kim stated, "Today, the president also emphasized the necessity of a one-point constitutional amendment."
He stressed, "While investigation and accountability are fundamental, a one-point constitutional amendment is essential for addressing the root problems."
On June 21, Kim will host a public discussion on Election Commission reform at Korea National Sport University in Songpa-gu, Seoul. The forum will address the causes of the voting paper shortage during the June 3 local elections and discuss measures to prevent such issues from recurring.
