Kang Min-seok (58), former spokesperson for the Moon Jae-in administration's Blue House, was appointed as the spokesperson for Gyeonggi Province on the 2nd.

Spokesperson Kang graduated from Yonsei University with a degree in Public Administration and is a former journalist who worked as a reporter for Kyunghyang Shinmun and served as political chief, editorial writer, and political editor at JoongAng Ilbo. He also served as a special advisor to National Assembly Speaker Park Byeong-seok and as spokesperson for the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education.

Spokesperson Kang emphasized, "I deeply sympathize with the provincial government's direction of 'more opportunities, more equitable opportunities, better opportunities,' and as a spokesperson, I will strive for 'more communication, more equitable communication, better communication' to achieve that goal."
