"Park Geun-hye: From First Female President to Scandal-Plagued Figurehead" Former South Korean President Park Geun-hye, once celebrated as the country's first female head of state, has now become a symbol of political scandal and controversy.
After her historic election in 2012, Park's tenure was marred by allegations of corruption and abuse of power.
The downfall of Park Geun-hye began with the revelation of her close ties to Choi Soon-sil, a confidante accused of using her influence over the president for personal gain.
This scandal led to mass protests across South Korea, demanding Park's resignation and sparking a political crisis.
In 2017, Park was impeached by the National Assembly and subsequently removed from office by the Constitutional Court.
She was later arrested and charged with bribery, abuse of power, and coercion.
In 2018, Park was sentenced to 25 years in prison, marking a dramatic fall from grace for the once-prominent leader.
Despite her imprisonment, Park Geun-hye's legacy continues to cast a shadow over South Korean politics, serving as a cautionary tale of the dangers of unchecked power and corruption at the highest levels of government.
