Office of the President of the Republic of Korea

The Office of the President of the Republic of Korea (Korean: 대통령비서실; Hanja: 大統領秘書室) assists the President of South Korea.

Cheong Wa Dae or Blue House was often used as a metonym for the Presidential Secretariat because of its location before President Yoon Suk Yeol moved the office and residency of the President out of Blue House in May 2022.

The Presidential Secretariat is an important part of the executive branch of the South Korean government.

President Yoon almost halved the size of his secretariat following his campaign promise to give more authority to ministers.

[1] Chief Presidential Secretary for Policy as well as advisors to the presidents have been abolished.
