On October 10, South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol proposed the creation of a National Normalization Committee during a cabinet meeting at the Blue House. He emphasized that various tasks across governmental departments could be organized to address initiatives for 'normalizing' abnormalities that have arisen in society. The president stated that while these tasks could be seen as reforms, there is no need to label them as such to avoid emotional resistance, underscoring the importance of focusing on tangible results rather than the terminology used.

President Yoon's comments came after he previously identified seven major 'abnormalities' in Korean society that need addressing, which include issues such as drug crime, public corruption, voice phishing, illegal real estate transactions, serious tax delinquencies, stock market manipulation, and major industrial accidents. He believes that tackling these issues is essential to overcoming external challenges and moving toward a more normalized societal framework. The creation of the committee, which he suggests should be led by an objective chairperson with governmental support, is intended to contribute to this effort.

Prime Minister Han Duck-soo supported President Yoon's initiative by urging ministers to collect and organize issues pertaining to their respective departments, promising that their findings would be consolidated by the Prime Minister's Office for a cohesive approach to normalization tasks. This initiative reflects a proactive stance from the Yoon administration to systematically address existing problems, positioning it as a vital strategy for enhancing the functionality and accountability of South Korean governance.
