On 23 November 2020, President Moon Jae-in appointed Kang Chang-il as the new ambassador to Japan. Press Secretary of Japanese MOFA, Tomoyuki Yoshida, reviled on 3 February 2021 that the South Korean side announcement of the appointment was without agrément, and promptly after the announcement, Chief of protocol Atsushi Kaifu had told to embassy of South Korea in Tokyo that it was extremely regrettable to have deviated customary international law. At the timing of 3 February 2021, as Kang had not yet completed procedures to become an ambassador, including Letter of credence, he was still called as "the next ambassador to Japan."
An official of the South Korean presidential office said that the appointment of Kang reflects Moon's willingness to improve bilateral relations following Yoshihide Suga's appointment as Prime Minister. Kang has pledged to make every effort to improve and normalize relations between South Korea and Japan, following deterioration in relations over issues of wartime labor and comfort women. He has relayed Moon's statement that the two governments should prepare solutions to the pending problems through dialogue and that they should cooperate where possible, including on the Tokyo Olympic Games.
