Choi Sang-mok (Korean: 최상목, born 7 June 1963) is a South Korean politician who served as the acting president and acting prime minister of South Korea from December 2024 to March 2025, following the impeachment of Han Duck-soo, which was subsequently overturned by the Constitutional Court. Choi served as the deputy prime minister and the minister of economy and finance from December 2023 to May 2025. Choi was initially expected to assume the acting presidency and prime ministership again on 2 May, when Han resigned to run for president, but resigned on the night of 1 May, ahead of an anticipated impeachment vote in the National Assembly. Therefore, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education Lee Ju-ho assumed the acting presidency.
