Yoon made the remarks during his inauguration speech after being sworn in at a ceremony in Seoul. 

Yoon, 61, will face two major problems as he takes office:  North Korea testing new weapons and inflation threatening to undermine an economic recovery from two years of COVID-19.

President Yoon outlined various challenges facing the country and the world from pandemics and rearrangements in global supply chains to record-low growth and rising unemployment at home.

More than 40,000 people were in attendance, including former presidents Moon Jae-in and Park Geun-hye as well as delegations from the US, China and Japan.
