Biography edit

Kwon Yong-jin was the director of the General Political Bureau of the Korean People's Army (KPA). He served in this post since he replaced Kim Su-gil in January 2021 until 2022. On 24 February 2021 Kwon Yong-jin alongside Minister of People's Armed Forces Kim Jong-Gwan were both promoted to the rank of Vice Marshal.[2][3]

According to a KCTV video from February 6, 2022, Kwon became a General, an apparent demotion from his previous rank as a Vice Marshal.[1]
