    In his first news conference in nearly two years, South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol pledged to tame inflation and create a new ministry to boost the country’s birth rate. He also sought to draw a line under the so-called handbag saga involving his wife, describing First Lady Kim Keon-hee’s actions were “unwise”.

    The issue is not even about accepting a bribe. Its about how cheap it is for a high ranking person to accept a lowly Dior purse. At least make it a few million dollars

      It's only one handbag which wasn't even a bribe because she was tricked by the pastor who had a spy cam with him and Korean liberals are mad about it while the real corrupted politicians take real bribes that are so much bigger than a Dior handbag. Calling out Korea's materialism is wrong in this situation.

      Let me simply explain this for you. She met a pastor who claimed that he's her father's friend, but he was trying to trick her and get her in trouble, so he gave her a Dior handbag as if it's a gift for her while recording it with his spy cam. She took it without a doubt. Then, he leaked the video and the liberals in Korea got mad and started attacking her. She basically got framed.

Though their plastic surgery trend is too much, other 3rd world nations from Europe, Asia and around the world can learn much from them.
