Chung Kwang-yong choked up in describing how much he missed Park Geun-hye, the South Korean president, who has been cloistered in her official residence since her impeachment in December on corruption charges.
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Democracies centered on the president have a number of flaws, and even the US has been shown to have its problems. South Korea needs to reform its constitution to implement a modified semi-presidential system, and the presidency should be declared to be above party politics. In addition, the heads of the judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years, with 1/4 of all MPs facing election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
