SEOUL, October 23 (AJP) - LG CNS has donated an artificial intelligence–based legal support system to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to improve legal assistance for refugees in South Korea.
The system, developed jointly by LG CNS and UNHCR, was officially handed over during a ceremony in Seoul on Oct. 17, attended by LG CNS President Hyun Shin-kyun and UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi.
The AI system — named Agentic Works — is intended to improve legal protection for refugees in South Korea and support lawyers handling asylum cases. By analyzing application materials, interview transcripts, and multilingual documents, the platform can help generate legal drafts in a fraction of the time it currently takes. According to the company, the system can reduce document preparation from several days to just a few hours.
Refugee applications are frequently rejected because of language barriers, procedural complexity, and insufficient documentation. LG CNS said its AI solution will help address these issues by enabling lawyers to input and verify essential information more accurately and efficiently.
“This program reflects our commitment to using AI not only to advance industry, but to solve pressing social issues,” Hyun said at the signing ceremony. “We hope it will make a meaningful difference for refugees facing legal challenges.”
Grandi welcomed the initiative, calling it an example of technology being used for humanitarian support. “This collaboration shows how AI can overcome barriers such as language and help ensure refugees receive the legal support they need,” he said.
