ALSA 2025 meeting

The Constitution of the Republic of Korea is the supreme law of the Republic of Korea (South Korea). Between 17 July 1948, the date of adoption of the first Constitution, and 1987, the Constitution was amended nine times. South Korea adopted its current democratic constitution on 29 October 1987.
The Constitutional Court is an institution established to safeguard the Constitution and guarantee the basic rights of the people. Founded and grown alongside the current 1987 Constitution, the Constitutional Court has dedicated ceaseless efforts to cultivate democracy and the Rule of Law. Now, its achievements are recognized not just within our country but also globally. In recent times, our society is undergoing rapid changes, presenting us with new tasks and challenges. The Constitutional Court will respond to these changes while maintaining allegiance to its basic principles.
