Abstract

The constitutional framework of South Korea safeguards the fundamental rights of its citizens within a liberal democratic governance structure, ensuring adherence to the rule of law. Empowered as a check on state authority, the judiciary plays a pivotal role in assessing the legality of administrative actions. While administrative courts exist as specialized entities within the Court of Justice rather than as a separate system, South Korea has implemented specific procedural laws governing administrative cases. Consequently, the standards and outcomes of administrative cases, rulings, and directives align with those of nations that maintain a distinct administrative court system.
