the holy see appointed yeom as the 5th archbishop of seoul on 10 may 2012, succeeding cardinal nicholas cheong jin-suk and thus making him de facto primate of korea. at the installation ceremony he said "we need to keep the dignity of human life in a society that takes life lightly. the church will fight for that," said archbishop yeom during the inaugural mass. the seoul archdiocese held the inaugural ceremony for the new archbishop on the 62nd anniversary of the outbreak of the korean war, as a symbolic gesture, praying especially for the reconciliation and reunification of the two koreas. since then, martyrdom has left an indelible mark on his episcopal ministry. his ministry has also been marked by constants references to the precious faith of martyrs which is seen an example of authentic testimony all christians should follow no matter what their life condition or state. he also expressed a strong eagerness for dialogue, reconciliation and peace between the two koreas to calm the tensions that are circling the peninsula, introducing the risk of a new conflict.. the inaugural mass was attended by cardinal cheong, culture minister choe kwang-shik, vatican nuncio archbishop osvaldo padilla, political leaders including former opposition leader sohn hak-kyu, rep. kang ki-gap and gyeonggi governor kim moon-soo. as archbishop of seoul, he is head of the largest local church in the koreas, and the officeholder is traditionally also apostolic administrator of pyongyang, the north korean capital. the pyongyang diocese has been vacant since the death of its last ordinary, bishop francis hong yong-ho, who was imprisoned by the north korean government in 1949, and later disappeared.
