Law enforcement in South Korea
- Law enforcement in South Korea
South Korea has a relatively unified and integrated approach law enforcement. For example, the National Police Agency (South Korea) provides all policing services throughout the country. This differs from the situation in many countries including France, where policing is split between the National Police and "Gendarmerie", and between countries such as the United States which have a layered system of National, State/Regional and/or local Law Enforcement organizations.
