Description

South Korea’s First Lady has been surrounded by scandal since before her husband, Yoon Suk Yeol, was elected president in 2022. Most recently, she’s come under fire after a secretly-recorded video showed her accepting a lavish gift from a controversial pastor. Will the Dior bag scandal affect the ruling party in Wednesday’s parliamentary elections?
