Lee Jae-myung President's Office website opens! Meeting the public again in the digital plaza.

Opening of the Presidential Office website

On June 19, 2025, the fifteenth day of President Lee Jae-myung's inauguration, a temporary official website for the presidential office was unveiled. The domain remains the same as before, www.president.go.kr, and serves as a platform to transparently provide the public with key information such as the president's schedule, statements, photos and videos, and briefings. This goes beyond merely establishing a temporary site it also symbolizes the first step in revealing the governance philosophy and operational direction of the Lee Jae-myung administration.

Digital-based Future Nation

The government of Lee Jae-myung presented 'digital-based future nation,' 'practicality and speed,' and 'realization of popular sovereignty' as its three core values right after its launch. These three values have been realized first through this temporary website. The website does not merely serve to disclose the president's schedule or allow access to photos it focuses on conveying the flow of state affairs and decision-making processes to the public, establishing a foundation for communication. It can be seen as an approach that interprets digital technology not just as an administrative tool, but as a means to realize democracy.

Efficient content organization

The content structure of the homepage is faithful to the basics while enhancing efficiency. The president's schedule and statements are summarized and presented in card format, and photos and videos are designed for accessibility through an intuitive user interface. Full transcripts of briefings are organized by date, allowing the presidential office's positions to be communicated quickly and accurately. In particular, there are considerations for expanding participatory features such as strengthening the national petition system and introducing a real-time communication bulletin board, so the homepage is expected to gradually evolve into a 'citizen participation platform'.

Practical Philosophy of Budget Execution

This website construction also reflects the practical philosophy of the Lee Jae-myung government in terms of budget execution. Development has been carried out within the scope of existing maintenance contracts without any additional new budget. Moreover, the ability to restore the system and design a new structure despite the fact that source code and data were not transferred from the previous government during the handover process is noteworthy in terms of administrative efficiency and digital resilience.

Practices for Restoring Trust

The establishment of this homepage is also a concrete action for restoring trust between the citizens and the government. While some past administrations limited their websites to one-way information delivery, this new homepage focuses on information openness and a two-way communication structure. The commitment to provide real-time information through the official website and to listen to the voices of the citizens, rather than just relying on media reports or briefings, represents a restoration of communication that had been severed and a transformation in administrative practices.

Extended Features and Interactions

The official website in the future will have a more expanded functionality and interaction structure than the temporary page. The introduction of a system that directly collects public opinions and reflects them in policies, as well as a bulletin board that allows for real-time briefings and feedback, will play a role in transforming national governance from a dimension of 'explanation' to a structure of 'co-production' with the public. This is an attempt to function digital platforms as a space for the realization of democracy and is also aligned with efforts to achieve transparency, participation, and practicality in administration.

The Birth of the Digital Plaza

In the end, the launch of the presidential office's website is not merely the debut of a simple web platform, but can be described as the birth of a digital square that concretely embodies the governance philosophy and communication approach of the Lee Jae-myung administration. It stands as a symbolic experiment on how administration interacts with citizens in a changing technological environment and is an important attempt to systematize the transparency and efficiency of government operations. Now, citizens are not just beneficiaries but will establish themselves as 'agents' who can participate in national affairs and voice their opinions through this space.

Evolution of Websites

This website is not a finished product but aims for a structure that can continuously evolve. When information flows, citizens participate, and policies reflect that feedback, administration becomes an organic system composed of interaction with the public, rather than a top-down command system from the center. President Lee Jae-myung's governance is now breathing together with the citizens in the digital square.
