Sejong City

I would recommend adding Sejong-si as the de facto capital of South Korea to the infobox.

The South Korean government has been moving ministries to the city ever since they have announced plans for a new capital (I could've not noticed a comment about Sejong in the infobox). Felleno (talk) 10:33, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Seoul is by all means and purposes still the de facto capital of Korea. The centers of the legislative, executive, and judicial branches are still at Seoul. Also, South Korea is not moving the capital of Korea - they're moving the executive capital of Korea. Bluepotato81 (talk) 11:24, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

South Korea is indeed moving the capital of the country to Sejong, currently they have relocated most of the cabinet and are planning to move the president there. Here is Korea Herald reporting on the decision to establish a presidential office in Sejong. A capital can be: executive, judicial, legislative or all three. If they moved the cabinet and other offices to Sejong, the city is the executive capital. Because the parliament and supreme court remain in Seoul, the city is the legislative and judicial capital.

There is no "leading capital" when it comes to authority over the nation. Both cities now have a significant presence of government agencies. Seoul is no longer the only capital of South Korea, there are many reasons for the eventual move of all of the government to Sejong. Currently, Sejong and Seoul are both capitals of the nation, almost indisputably and accordingly with the definition of a national capital. Felleno (talk) 16:31, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
