This cultural artifact will talk about the current scandal related to South Korea's current President. Park Geun Hye is the first female president of South Korea and was impeached last week. Park Geun Hye was found to have strong ties with the daughter of a shaman leader, Choi Soon Sil. Park Geun Hye was the daughter of a respected military leader who led a coup and advanced South Korea greatly. However, many believed that Park Geun Hye was unfit to be president.
The whole scandal started when a tablet with all the information was discovered and released on the news. Choi Soon Sil had severe influence on Park Geun Hye and her presidency. It was speculated that Choi Soon Sil had writted some, if not most, of Park Geun Hye's speeches. Choi was also speculated to have severe influence on the decisions that Park Geun Hye has made. This was a point of concern when Choi's alma mater was hosting a protest about unfair grades for Choi. Choi was suspected of bribing school officials to alter her grades and even increasing her chance of getting accepted into a prestigious university.
