Professor Choo Shin-young (Law School ) has been elected as the 11th President of the Korean Property Law Association. The Korean Property Law Association was founded in 1982 and has established itself as a leading society in the field of law. The term begins in March and lasts one year.

Professor Choo received his Ph.D. in Law from Gyeongsang National University and studied at the University of Munich. While serving as a Professor of Civil Law, he has conducted wide-ranging research and published papers in various areas, including civil procedure and civil enforcement law.

In particular, at the launch of the law school system he participated in a Ministry of Justice–led task force that developed questions for the bar exam, thereby contributing significantly to the establishment of the law school system. He has served as a member of the test development committees for the judicial examination and the bar exam, and has held major administrative posts on campus, including Director of the Student Guidance Center.

Professor Choo said, "I feel a heavy responsibility in assuming the presidency of a major association that represents Korea at such an important time," and added, "I will devote myself to supporting members' research activities, and to discovering and fostering early-career scholars to lead and support the next generation of academics."

He also stated his intention, "Through research on real estate legislation closely related to citizens' daily lives, such as tenancy law, I will faithfully fulfill roles such as proposing sound directions for national real estate policy."
