Prosecutor General Gu Ja-hyun, acting, expressed his intention to resign immediately after the criminal procedure amendment bill passed the National Assembly. This amendment bill abolishes the prosecution's supplementary investigation right entirely. Acting Prosecutor General Gu had previously expressed concerns about the direction of the bill discussions and decided to resign, feeling responsible for its passage. If Acting Prosecutor General Gu's resignation is accepted, Park Gyu-hyung, head of the Planning and Coordination Bureau of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, is expected to take over as acting Prosecutor General.
