The National Petition to the Blue House, also known as the Online Petition to the Blue House^[1] or succinctly as the National Petition (Korean: 국민청원), was a South Korean government website that was created as part of the Moon Jae-in administration's political communication effort to address citizen concerns in South Korea. The website was first released to the public on August 19, 2017, on then-president Moon Jae-in's 100th day in office. The website's goal was to establish a platform of direct communication between the government and the people under the philosophy that "the government will answer when the public asks". The National Petition is composed of a system in which government and Blue House officials respond to every petition recommended by more than 200,000 people over a period of 30 days.

Multiple petitions on the website became topics of interest and coverage for mainstream media after gaining tens of thousands of recommendations from other users. Many of these petitions requested changes in South Korean law or a thorough investigation into previously underdocumented criminal incidents.

The website was dissolved along with the end of Moon's presidential term on May 9, 2022.^[2]
