Former Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court, Moon Hyung-bae, spoke out about the 'Judicial Three Laws'—which include the crime of law distortion, the legal complaint process, and the increase of Supreme Court justices—during a recent radio interview. He stressed that the National Assembly's exercise of its legislative power must be respected and indicated that discussions should now focus on the practical application of these laws. He acknowledged that if the anticipated issues arise, there should be efforts to improve them, which reflects an understanding of the complexities surrounding legal reform.

Moon also addressed the controversial 'crime of law distortion' law, sharing his personal experiences of being reported for alleged abuse of power. He noted that while abuse of power laws have historically been directed at government officials, the distortion of law statutes apply to officials involved in judicial processes, highlighting the need for clarity and distinction in their application. Moreover, he pointed out the differences in application between countries that lack such laws versus those, like South Korea, where abuse of power has already been constitutionally confirmed and enforced through various prosecutions.

As for the increase in Supreme Court justices, Moon expressed that this should be paired with complementary systems such as the appeal process for effective implementation. He reiterated the idea that any legislative changes passed by the National Assembly deserve respect, and urged for minimalization of any arising problems. His remarks come in light of the recent passage of the judicial reforms, which have been contentious and labeled as "bad laws" by some, calling into question the future of judicial integrity in South Korea as these laws get implemented under the current presidential administration.
