Korea's Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission (ACRC) announced three consecutive “mobile civil-complaint” visits: Geoje on November 4, Hadong on November 5, and Jinan on November 6, 2026. Each locality has one main consultation desk and two smaller satellite desks. The main desk runs 10:00–16:00; the satellite desks run only 13:30–15:30. Check the building, floor and current local notice before setting out. This article reflects the commission's November 3 announcement, not a guarantee that an individual case can be resolved on the spot. Its cover is an AI-generated illustration, not a photograph of these events.
Wednesday, November 4: Geoje
The main Geoje desk is in the third-floor large conference room at Geoje City Hall from 10:00 to 16:00. The two satellite desks are in the second-floor small meeting room at Aju-dong Community Service Center and the second-floor meeting room at Hacheong-myeon Office, both from 13:30 to 15:30. Residents of Geoje, neighbouring Tongyeong and Goseong are included in the announcement. A satellite location may save a long trip, but it is not an all-day desk: arriving there in the morning or after 15:30 could mean missing the session.
Thursday, November 5: Hadong
The main desk is in the third-floor large conference room at Hadong County Office, 10:00–16:00. Satellite consultations are at the second-floor small meeting room of Hadong-eup Administrative Welfare Center and the third-floor small meeting room of Hadong County Senior and Disability Welfare Center, 13:30–15:30. Hadong, Namhae and Gurye residents may attend according to the release. In particular, do not assume that the welfare-centre desk has the same opening hours as the county-office main desk. If you are travelling from a neighbouring county, check the latest venue notice and whether the issue you want to raise fits the consultation fields.
Friday, November 6: Jinan
The main desk is in the third-floor auditorium of Jinan County Office, 10:00–16:00. The satellite desks are at the first-floor civil-service office of Jinan-eup Administrative Welfare Center and the first-floor Geopark Center of Maisan North Tourist Information Center, 13:30–15:30. The release includes Jinan, Muju and Jangsu residents. The tourist-information-centre location is a satellite consultation site, not the county-office main desk. These three November visits end after November 6; do not treat this schedule as a booking for a later mobile session.
A separate Jinan County notice says advance consultation requests closed on October 28, but walk-in registration remains available on November 6. An expired advance-request deadline therefore does not itself mean the on-site consultation is closed. Check current queues and registration arrangements with the organiser.
What can you bring to the consultation?
The ACRC says its investigators deal with grievances about central or local government and public institutions. Specialists from cooperating organisations address everyday legal problems, household finance, land-registration matters and consumer harm. The announcement names the Korea Legal Aid Corporation, Korea Inclusive Finance Agency, Korea Land and Geospatial Informatix Corporation and Korea Consumer Agency among the partners. It does not promise that every specialist is present at every desk or that every dispute will be decided immediately. A short written timeline, the institutions involved, previous responses and the outcome you seek can help you explain your case. Check the latest official instructions if you need to know whether identification or particular evidence is required; the release does not set a universal document list.
Before leaving, confirm the city and date, then the correct main or satellite venue, floor and hours. Check the neighbouring-area eligibility if you live outside the host locality. For last-minute changes, use an official ACRC or municipal notice rather than a forwarded message. Be suspicious of an unsolicited demand for an “appointment fee,” bank details or authentication codes; the cited announcement does not impose such a payment or declare a mandatory online booking process.
