South Korea's presidential office's senior secretary for civil and social affairs Hwang Sang Moo briefs at the presidential office in Seoul, South Korea, Monday, Jan. 22, 2024. South Korea’s presidential office said Monday it approved a request by the country’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission to extend its term by a year through late-May 2025. Investigators had been calling for more time to examine a broad range of human rights violations linked to Seoul’s past military governments, including a widespread falsifying of child origins that fueled a government-backed foreign adoption boom in the 1970s and '80s.
