South Korea Names Civilian Defense Minister After Martial Law Incident

South Korea's new leader, President Lee, has picked a non-military person, Ahn Gyu-back, to lead the country's defense department.

This is a big change, as the defense minister has always been a military general for a long time.

This decision comes after the previous president was removed from office due to a plan involving martial law.

President Lee also chose new people for foreign affairs and dealing with North Korea.
