Calls to Suspend the Korean Society of Administrative Law Regular General Meeting Due to Violations of Articles of Association
- Reporter Kim Wan-young
[Break News = Reporter Kim Wan-young] The Korean Society of Administrative Law will hold its 2026 Regular General Meeting on Friday, February 27th, on the 2nd floor of the National Defense Convention Taegeuk Hall to address four agenda items.
At this regular general meeting, agenda items include: Approval of the 2025 business balance sheet (income and expenditure); Approval of the 2026 business plan (draft); Approval of the 2026 business balance sheet (income and expenditure); and Approval of the 2026 business balance sheet (draft). Agenda items include: Approval of the 2026 business balance sheet (income and expenditure); and Approval of the disciplinary action against Administrative Lawyer Seok Jong-geun.
However, voices calling for the suspension of the regular general meeting have been rising in various administrative society communities.
Sky Meta News Editor-in-Chief Kim Do-gyun, who has been criticizing the Korean Society of Administrative Law's (KSLA) management practices, reported in an article titled, "'The Korean Society of Administrative Law Holds a Flash Board Meeting on the 25th, Two Days Before the General Meeting,'" that "the regular general meeting should be postponed and reconvened." This asserts a violation of the seven-day advance notice obligation stipulated in Article 31 of the Articles of Incorporation."
Furthermore, an administrative lawyer surnamed Park filed a petition with the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, arguing, "This violates accounting standards for non-profit organizations, infringes on members' property rights, and may lead to breach of trust. It also lacks specific grounds for auditor disciplinary action, and the executive branch provides insufficient data."
In response, Nam Sang-ki, Secretary General of the Korean Administrative Society, asserted, "The regular general meeting held on February 27th was legally convened in accordance with Article 20 of the Articles of Incorporation. Proxy voting is also legal. Furthermore, the Korean Administrative Society has no obligation to prepare a budget in accordance with the 'Accounting Standards for Non-Profit Organizations,' so there's no reason for the accusation of violating accounting standards."
Upon hearing this, an administrative officer stated, "The Korean Administrative Society, under the supervision of the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, is required by its Articles of Incorporation to prepare budgets and report to the supervisory authority, yet it claims 'there is no obligation to prepare a budget'. I'm astonished at the current executive's lack of understanding of its duties."
Meanwhile, the Korean Administrative Society's regular general meeting on the 27th is expected to be chaotic due to violations of the Articles of Incorporation and the president's significant salary increase. Attention is focused on whether MOIS officials attending the meeting will order the meeting to be suspended.
The Korean Administrative Society issued a rebuttal stating, "The regular general meeting was lawfully convened in accordance with Article 20 of the Articles of Incorporation."
In response, the Korean Administrative Society issued an official statement on the 26th, stating, "The regular general meeting of members scheduled for February 27, 2026, was lawfully convened in accordance with Article 20 of the Articles of Incorporation." The claim of violation of the Articles of Incorporation is untrue.
The association also provided a statement regarding the "written resolution" of the board of directors. According to Article 47, Paragraph 2 of the Articles of Incorporation, the financial statements must be audited, submitted to the board of directors, and then approved by the general meeting of members. The regular audit was completed on February 23, and the audit report was delivered to the secretariat around midnight on the 24th.
The association explained, "Convening a separate in-person board meeting prior to the regular general meeting was practically impossible," and "In accordance with Article 33, Paragraph 1 of the Articles of Incorporation, we adopted a written resolution for urgent matters."
Furthermore, the board added that the financial statements in question had already been deliberated and resolved at the 6th extraordinary board meeting on December 23, 2025, and that the directors were fully aware of the contents. The board unanimously approved the written resolution.
An official from the Korean Administrative Society pointed out, "It is inappropriate to describe the procedural measures taken to comply with the Articles of Incorporation as a 'lightning board meeting.'"
The association also refuted the allegations of violations of accounting standards. The Korean Administrative Society prepares its budget by section, category, item, and item based on the business plan in accordance with Article 9 of the "Regulations on Budget and Accounting," and requests an audit by an auditor pursuant to Article 27 of the same regulations.
The association explained, "The Korean Administrative Society prepares and executes its budget and financial statements in accordance with internal regulations and complies with relevant laws and general accounting standards."
He continued, "It is deeply regrettable that only a portion of the Secretary-General's remarks were quoted, omitting the intent of the statement, 'The budget and accounting rules will be compiled and executed.'"
In particular, the Korean Society of Administrative Officials emphasized that this regular general meeting was legally convened in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and that preparations were being made in accordance with relevant procedures, having reported to the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, the supervisory authority.
He also stated, "It is untrue to interpret the opinions of some members as if they were universal or to suggest that 'great chaos is expected.'" He added, "The general meeting is being prepared normally in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and regulations."
The Korean Society of Administrative Officials stated, "We will continue to operate transparently in accordance with the law and Articles of Incorporation."
