Not sure how many of these will completely get resolved but it’s quite the task list. Here are a few of my favorites.
1) Direct elections for the Korea Football Association presidency, increasing transparency in the head coach selection process. Yeah, this has been an issue lately with national team fans over the appointment of Coach Hong.

2) Standardize fees for summer beach facilities such as parasols, where price gouging disputes have been persistent. If you’re a fan of going to the beach, not getting gouged will improve the experience.

3) Flexible easing of school zone speed limits. The uniform application of the 30 kilometer-per-hour limit even during late-night hours and weekends, when few children are present, has long been criticized as excessive. This one I feel is on the riskier side in that sometimes there are late-evening activities at schools like festival setup and after-school class/training. If implemented carefully, there shouldn’t be any additional risk to kids.

4) Eradication of ticket scalping in the performance and sports sectors, Yeah this has been a serious drag on baseball and KPOP for years. About time the gov stepped in and did something about it.

The article didn’t have a list of all 164 things they desire to fix but I imagine we’ll start hearing about them soon enough.
