It also recommended to revamp laws and regulations to guarantee status and rights of stateless persons as set forth on the Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons to improve human rights conditions of those who have lost their original nationality after their Korean citizenship has been revoked at the ruling of the judiciary that the marriage is a sham designed to acquire the Korean nationality.
