  • According to Article 82 of the Constitution of the Republic of Korea, the Prime Minister and the members of the State Council should countersign to assist the President's legal behavior. It has important implications to the members of the State Council for sharing responsibilities with the President. However, the 'related' State Councilor's countersignature by the Minister of Interior(MOI) for non-State member agencies have been operating as a ritual, since the Government Organization Act describes that non-specific affairs belongs to the MOI in accordance with Article 34, paragraph 2. This paper is to promote the department standard operating by the Presidential Decree. Its main idea is to categorize non-State Councilor agencies with most closely related to members of the State Council. I suggest to make a portfolio such as Australian Federal Government in Korea. It can be made easily in accordance with each agency's rights and responsibilities written in the Acts. That's the turning point to improve effectiveness of the related State councilor's countersignature by the constitution to the President's legal activity joint accountability with the Prime Minister.
