Two Aides To Ex-President Myung-bak Lee Arrested For Bribery And Misappropriation Of Funds

It seems they are implicating former Korean President Lee in the scandal surrounding the misuse of secret funds from the intelligence agency amounting to approximately $400,000.

Yonhap News: Arrest warrants sought for 2 former aides of ex-President Lee over bribery

The arrest warrants were issued early this morning. 

Let's see, Presidents Lee Sung-man, Park Chung-hee, Chun Do-hwan, Noh Tae-woo, and Park Keun-hye all committed crimes. Two received life sentences (Chun Do-hwan and Noh Tae-woo), but were given Presidential pardons. Park Keun-hye will probably be sentenced to many years in jail. Now, it looks like Myung-bak Lee may be indicted. Only three former Korean Presidents were "clean"?

With these kinds of people leading Korea, it's a miracle that Korea has developed so much economically, and a tragedy that Korea has such an "unjust" society at the moment. Seems like a country half run by crooks.
