A special advisory committee on military reform has recommended establishing a joint operations command to prepare for the handover of wartime operational control (OPCON) from Washington. The proposal aims to achieve the conditions-based transfer within President Lee Jae Myung's five-year term ending in 2030. The defense ministry plans to review and incorporate the committee's details into its reform policy.
