The screen, the questions and the judgments read in English where an English reading has been made. The Korean originals are unchanged, and evidence stays in the language it was written in.

Gathering the will to reform — did that also gather the authority?

1869The past, rebuiltDeadline · Within 60 days until the first implementation plan

Reconstruction of the past

The source reference date is 1869-01-01. Only the original texts of that time that are stated are used as background; the three situational premises and the subsequent branches are invented. Real outcomes, amended institutions, and success cases known later are not used as facts of the initial input. This is a modern retrospective construction of the question, not a claim that the people of that time made this decision.

The question to decide

Even when they pledged reform together, the authority each participant can actually hand over differs. Broad delegation moves fast but blurs boundaries; checking case by case slows response to urgent livelihood problems. Considering even a pilot delegation with set limits on time and scope, into what implementation agreement should the pledge be turned?

The options

The order shown is not a ranking of preference.

  1. Option 1

    Delegate broad authority under the pledge

    Addresses many problems quickly, but the end of delegation and the conditions for withdrawing authority can grow unclear.

  2. Option 2

    Confirm authority for each matter of execution

    Makes the scope of responsibility clear, but increases the time for repeated confirmation and the cost of consultation.

  3. Option 3

    Pilot authority with a deadline and a scope

    Gains execution experience, but problems beyond the pilot and responsibility for succession after it ends remain.

The situation as it stands

The pledge of the reconstructed meeting states the direction of reform broadly, but not every participant holds the same authority. Decision deadline: within 60 days, by the first execution plan.

Reconstruction of the past with a present horizon of 1869-01-01 · The intent of the person who pledged reform and the authority to carry it out differ. This is a fictional case newly created from the principles of documents of that time. The institutions, people, figures, and events that appear are not actual records of decision-making.

  1. Premise 1The pledge of the reconstructed meeting states the direction of reform broadly, but not every participant holds the same authority.
  2. Premise 2A broad delegation can move quickly, but how far the matters entrusted went can be disputed later.
  3. Premise 3Confirming authority matter by matter leaves the boundaries clear, but delays the response to urgent problems of daily life.

Where it holdsPledge, boundaries of authority, and performance

What is still unknown

  1. Unknown 1The authority each participant can actually hand over
  2. Unknown 2The deadline for urgent matters and the loss caused by delay
  3. Unknown 3The body that withdraws the delegation and reviews objections

Signals to decide again

  • Decide what observations, responsible persons, and confirmation channels can verify 'the authority each participant can actually transfer,' and re-judge once new verification changes the tradeoffs of the options.
  • Decide what observations, responsible persons, and confirmation channels can verify 'the deadline for urgent matters and the loss caused by delay,' and re-judge once new verification changes the tradeoffs of the options.
  • Decide what observations, responsible persons, and confirmation channels can verify 'the body that withdraws the delegation and reviews objections,' and re-judge once new verification changes the tradeoffs of the options.
Where the paths partNot answers — paths that part from the same starting point
Independent branch 1 · synthetic event

An executor said that, citing the broad wording of the pledge, it would take charge of areas not discussed at first.

Independent branch 2 · synthetic event

The pilot period ended, but responsibility for the projects already started remained.

Which is the basis of representation: expertise, majority, or random selection?

An exploratory perspective chosen by the creator. Does not claim supernatural validity or the superiority of any particular option.
Values and norms

The benefits and costs of the options accrue to different stakeholders. Which loss to accept remains undecided.

A subject for the decision-maker to argue over; the materials carry no conclusion of their own.
