Martial law in South Korea: is the First lady involved in the decision?
South Korean President Yoon Seok-yel has declared martial law, and there are rumors that his wife Kim Hong-hee is behind it. The first lady, known for scandals and influence on politics, is back in the spotlight.
One version of the declaration of martial law in South Korea links this decision to the influence of First Lady Kim Kong-hee. 52-year-old wife of President Yun Seok-yeon, despite her status, often becomes the object of scandals and the attention of the opposition, which accuses her of excessive influence on the country's politics.
Kim Kong-hee was previously involved in an incident involving a $2,200 donated Dior bag. The prosecutor's office opened an investigation, but the bribery charges were dropped. This has only strengthened the discontent of the opposition, which regularly demands checks and investigations against the first lady, but the president blocks such initiatives.
Against the background of martial law and rumors of an unstable situation in the country, Kim Kong-hee's role raises questions again. Her alleged influence on her husband's decisions, including such significant steps as the imposition of martial law, remains the subject of discussion and criticism.
The scandalous reputation of the first lady adds fuel to the fire of the political crisis, intensifying the differences between the president and the opposition. It remains to be seen how much Kim Kong Hee is really involved in the current events in South Korea.
