South Korea's judicial reform laws were proclaimed on March 12, allowing constitutional appeals against Supreme Court rulings and punishment for legal distortion. This marks the first major overhaul since the 1987 constitutional amendment, including an expansion of Supreme Court justices. The measures passed under the ruling Democratic Party despite opposition from the opposition and judiciary.
