Kim Suk-soo (Korean: 김석수; born November 20, 1932) is a South Korean politician and attorney-at-law. Kim graduated from Paichai High School in 1952 and Yonsei University in 1956 with a bachelor's degree in law. After his service as a justice of the Supreme Court and chairman of the National Election Commission, Kim was nominated by President Kim Dae-jung to be prime minister on September 10, 2002. He was the president's third choice for the position, vacant since the removal of Lee Han-dong, following the opposition-controlled parliament's rejection of Chang Sang and Chang Dae-whan. He was confirmed on October 5, 2002, by a vote of 210 to 31.[1] New President Roh Moo-hyun chose Goh Kun as Kim's replacement on February 26, 2003. On April 25, 2013, he was elected as the head director of Yonsei University after Bang Woo-Young, a former chairman of The Chosun Ilbo, resigned. Kim is also an Of Counsel at DR & AJU LLC.[2]
