Back in 2005, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Korea found the old 호주 (hoju) system to be unconstitutional, and the legislature created a "personal registry" system which went into effect on 1 January 2008.

So, the big questions are:

  1. How does it work?
  2. Who can report entries (marriage, birth, etc.)?
  3. Under the hoju system, one would get a certified copy of it; now, what does one get if one needs a certified copy of, say, a marriage certificate?
  4. Who has access to the personal registry? (Who, besides the person whose registry it is can view the information on the personal registry?)
