Kim Myeong-su was born in Busan, South Korea on October 12, 1959. Public records list Kim Myeong-su as a judge. That works out to 66 years old in 2026. Education on record includes Busan High School.
My Take
Kim Myeong-su fascinates me because he isn't an entertainer at all but a jurist who rose to become the 16th Chief Justice of Korea's Supreme Court, serving from 2017 to 2023. From a Busan high school to the very summit of the judiciary is a remarkable arc, and I find his presence here a welcome reminder that public life extends far beyond the spotlight. I respect the discipline such a path demands. The people who hold up a nation's institutions rarely get applause, and that quiet gravity is exactly why he earns my admiration.
