Singer and actor Kim Myung-soo was appointed as the promotional ambassador of the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission (ACRC), his agency Management Leesang said on Thursday.
The agency reported that the actor received a letter of appointment and a replica of a special pass, called mapae, from ACRC Chairperson Jeon Hyun-heui on Monday. Mapae is a token that was carried by secret royal inspectors sent by the kings of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910).
