Outgoing South Korean President Moon Jae-in's administration said on Monday his successor's rush to relocate the presidential office and official residence could "create a security vacuum and confusion" at a time of tensions with North Korea.
South Korean president-elect Yoon Suk-yeol, breaking with tradition, announced on Sunday he will move the presidential office from the Blue House to the defence ministry compound, a step estimated to cost $40 million. Yoon said he wants to make the move immediately after his inauguration on May 10.
