Talk:Constitution of South Korea

message: I haven't  or  tagged it, but I wonder about the assertion in the Structure section that the direct translation of 자유민주적 기본질서 would be liberal democracy. Google translate translates the phrase as "Free democratic basic order", and the individual words as "freedom", "democratic", "dafault", and "order". In this page, the context where that snippet appears appears to be "대한민국은 통일을 지향하며, 자유민주적 기본질서에 입각한 평화적 통일정책을 수립하고 이를 추진한다. (emphasis supplied)", which, according to this page is "The Republic of Korea seeks unification and formulates and carries out a policy of peaceful unification based on the principles of freedom and democracy." in English.The words freedom and democracy are not being used there to indicate any particular governmental system (such as a liberal democracy). I don't speak Korean, but it looks to me as if this assertion needs to be re-thought. Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 06:31, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

message: In the first section, the text that reads "based on the Wiemar system," I assume should be "Weimar" system -- "ei" not "ie," -- but I don't know enough about Korean politics to confirm and correct this myself. Also, if it is in fact true that the system was based on Weimar's, would be great to have a citation. Seems odd that a country would, in 1948, base its political system on one whose spectacular failure culminated in a global war that ended just three years earlier, in 1945.

replies: text: I have no expertise here, but some googling turned up the following, among others: , , ,  (highlighted bits here look relevant),  (see the snippet), etc. Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 03:00, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The German spelling is indeed Weimar. Nevertheless, I propose deleting the sentence "It [the constitution] was originally based on the Weimar system, in which the president was elected indirectly", since there must be a mistake here: Under the 1919 Weimar constitution, the German president was elected directly by the people.

message: In the section 'Related Articles Of the Constitution Court', there are a number of sentences that grammatically don't make a lot of sense. Probably the result of either translations or editing. Could someone who can understand the original text of the constitution take a critical look at it? (for example, I presume the president appoints both the president of the court and its judges, and he doesn't appoint the president of the court *as* a judge?) Thanks! effeietsanders 14:56, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Translation issues? 

message: I am planning to improve and reorganize this article, to improve it to GA class sometime in the future. I am thinking of expanding the section on structure to incorporate more info from the constitution, merging the first two sections to a larger history/background section, and adding information on each article (adding to the articles on Constitutional Court) In the process, I have just moved the section on cases of the Constitutional Court to the Constitutional Court of Korea article. If anyone has any suggestions on how to improve/reorganize this article please let me know. Taewangkorea (talk) 08:43, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
