President Moon Jae-in has appointed a new secretary in charge of economic affairs, the presidential office said Thursday.

Park Won-joo, a career economic bureaucrat who previously served as head of the Korean Intellectual Property Office, will replace An Il-hwan as the senior presidential economic secretary.

An had tendered his resignation for health reasons, a presidential official said.

With half a year in office remaining, Moon has vowed do everything possible for a complete return to normal life from the COVID-19 pandemic and an economic recovery. (Yonhap)
