ABSTRACT

The enforcement system of Korea has been practiced for 80 years since the introduction of Japan"s mainstream system during the Japanese colonial era since 1936, when Japan was in its rule. However, in the meantime, the enforcement system has been transformed without major changes, except that the name is changed from the law enforcement office(executor) to the law enforcement office(bailiff) and again to the law enforcement office(bailiffs). First, the most serious problem is the appointment of the enforcement office(bailiffs). Second, the legal status of the enforcement Officer of Korea should be considered to be the closest to the nature of public servants in current law. Third, in the future, the enforcement officer should greatly strengthen the qualification requirements for those who have completed three years of graduate law school or who have been in the position of more than 5 years of clerk of court or prosecutorial office, through the open competition test. It is required to have a position that is equal to the requirements for attorney qualification.
