Presidential appointment
President Moon Jae-in, right, presents Jung Eun-kyeong with a certificate of appointment as the first head of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency during a ceremony held at the emergency situation center of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Cheongju, North Chungcheong, on Friday. Instead of following the tradition of inviting Chung to the Blue House for the appointment ceremony, Moon made a rare visit to her office to present the certificate in an apparent expression of appreciation for her dedicated service during the country's battle against Covid-19.
