Kim Hyung-yeon Takes Over as Proportional Representative for Justice Innovation Party

Kim Hyung-yeon, a Supreme Council member of the Justice Innovation Party, has entered the 22nd National Assembly following a cabinet reshuffle at the Blue House.


The party announced on August 30 that "As Lee Hae-min has been appointed as the Chief Secretary for AI Future Planning at the Blue House, Kim will succeed him as a proportional representative."


Kim was ranked 14th on the proportional representation list in the 22nd general election. The Justice Innovation Party made a significant impact in that election, securing 12 proportional representatives. Previously, when Justice Innovation Party head Cho Kuk lost his seat, Representative Baek Sun-hee, who was ranked 13th, succeeded him.


Kim has served as the head of the Legislation Office during the Moon Jae-in administration and is a former judge. He is currently serving as a Supreme Council member in the party's leadership.
