1958

Choo Mi-ae (born 23 October 1958) is a South Korean politician who served as the Minister of Justice as well as five-term parliamentarian and 3rd leader of Democratic Party.

She is the first woman to hold the post after Kang Kum-sil who was appointed by then-president Roh Moo-hyun, a political mentor of the incumbent Moon Jae-in.

She is also one of handful female parliamentarians who have served five or more terms at the National Assembly and the first to do so without ever being elected through proportional representation.

1996

In 1996, she became the first woman to represent a constituency in Seoul since the Constitution was last revised as well as the first female ex-judge to be elected as a parliamentarian.

She entered the National Assembly in the 1996 elections as a member of the National Congress.

1998

She participated in a memorial service for the uprising in 1998, and chaired the first public inquiry into the events the next year.

During the debate, Choo released a 200-page dossier listing 1,650 people who had been court-martialed for assisting the "communist rebellion" in Jeju.

Her release of the papers marked the first time any official government document on the uprising had been released to the general public.

2004

After originally rejecting the role, she was appointed head of the party's election campaign committee less than three weeks before the 2004 parliamentary election.

She lost her seat in the election.

2008

After her re-election to the Assembly in 2008, Choo stood again for the leadership of the United Democratic Party at the party convention on 6 July 2008.
