Kim Seungsoo Wins Korea Parliamentary Achievement Award for Six Consecutive Years, Setting a Record for Legislative Excellence
"Thanks to the Support of Daegu Bukgu Residents and Citizens"
The Most Prestigious Award Among Parliamentarian Evaluations by Civic Groups
Kim Seungsoo, member of the People Power Party (Daegu Bukgu-eul), has been awarded the "Korea Parliamentary Achievement Award," organized by the Law Consumers’ Federation, a non-profit organization.
With this, Assemblyman Kim set a remarkable record, receiving the Parliamentary Achievement Award for six consecutive years—without missing a single year—since the 21st National Assembly and now during the 22nd. This achievement once again demonstrates his commitment to legislative work and outstanding capabilities as a lawmaker.
The "Korea Parliamentary Achievement Award" is widely regarded as the most prestigious award among parliamentary performance evaluations conducted by civic groups.
The Law Consumers’ Federation conducts a comprehensive assessment based on twelve strictly quantified criteria, including attendance rates at plenary and standing committee sessions, legislative passage rates, performance during national audits, interpellation of the government, and activities on the Special Committee on Budget and Accounts.
This year’s evaluation targeted the first two years of legislative activity in the 22nd National Assembly since its opening.
Assemblyman Kim delivered exceptional results across various fields, including legislative activities and national audits, earning top evaluations for his diligence, such as achieving the highest plenary session attendance rate in Daegu.
In particular, his proactive legislative work addressing both everyday issues and future industries was especially notable.
He succeeded in passing amendments to the "River Act" and the "Act on the Conservation of Water Environment," both part of the so-called "Three Angling-Related Acts," long-awaited by fishing enthusiasts. He also sponsored four "Petroleum Price Stabilization Bills for Livelihood," aiming to relieve the public’s burden during the era of high oil prices.
He made major contributions to the passage of the "Management Fee Transparency Bill" to guarantee young people’s right to housing information, and the "K-Wave Regional Development Support Act" to promote local growth.
Additionally, he led the way in strengthening Korea’s content industry competitiveness by promoting legislation for the development of the musical, advertising, and character industries.
His performance during the national audit also stood out.
Assemblyman Kim actively raised issues regarding mismanagement and corruption in the Korea Football Association and controversial referee decisions, drawing broad public support. He also rigorously questioned ongoing issues in culture and sports, including addressing historical distortions in Korea produced by generative AI and criticizing the Korea Film Council for biases in its independent film selection process.
