President Lee Jae Myung is facing increasing political instability following public dissatisfaction with his recent Cabinet appointments. Despite the withdrawal of two initial nominees, the administration continues to encounter significant criticism. On Monday, Chief of Staff Kang Hoon-sik formally submitted his resignation to the President. According to Seong Ghi-hong, the senior presidential secretary for public relations, Kang chose to step down to accept responsibility for the ongoing political turmoil surrounding these personnel decisions. The move highlights the growing pressure on the ruling bloc as it struggles to manage the fallout from its recent staffing choices.
