Kim Deog-ryong, a former lawmaker, speaks during a seminar at the National Assembly in Seoul on May 16, 2023, to mark the 30th anniversary of a civilian government being launched under President Kim Young-sam. Kim, who served as president between 1993 and 1998, became the first person without a military background to be elected president in a free and direct presidential election, marking the start of what many people view as the first true civilian government.
