The President of Chasun, officially the President of the Republic of Chasun (Chasunese: 차순공화국 대통령, Jaseŏun Gonghwagug Daetongnyeong, abbreviated to POC or POTROC), is the head of state and head of government of the Republic of Chasun. The current office holder is Seo Ji-won since 24 September 2018, of the Democratic Forum Party (DFP).
The office has been in place with its current powers since the amendment of the current Constitution of Chasun on 23 December 1999, replacing the previous governments of indirectly and intransparently elected presidential officeholders and nominally ending the military junta rule of the Chasunese armed forces since the Republic's establishment following the Summer Coup in 1920. The position has evolved over time, with the first constitutional instrument granting more exclusive powers and a definition to their role, essentially granting authoritarian autocratic rule. The efforts of the 1989 April Struggle allowed for Chasun to slowly transition to a more democratic government, with the President position being directly elected every five years and not be equipped with the possibility of an office holder's re-election since 1999. The office is the head of the executive organ of the Chasunese government and the nominal commander-in-chief of the armed forces (ROCAF). The President resides in formerly imperial Seonghadae Palace (dubbed the "Blue Residence") in Geoju.
Though the current office of President is reduced in its political powers, it still retains a position of continuation of the presidencies of the First and Second Republics of Chasun, and there have been multiple instances of sweeping abuse of power and violations of political freedoms and freedom of speech through presidential actions, most notably with the tenures of Moon Il-yu and Sim Cheol-jin, the latter of which being removed from office due to charges of corruption and electoral fraud in 2013.
