Parliament Approves Arrest of Former Ruling Party Lawmaker for Bribery
It makes me wonder how many other members of the National Assembly were taking bribes like she allegedly did?:

The National Assembly on Tuesday approved a motion to arrest Rep. Kang Sun-woo over bribery allegations related to a nomination by the ruling Democratic Party (DP).
Kang, now an independent lawmaker who formerly belonged to the DP, is accused of receiving 100 million won (US$68,300) in exchange for supporting the nomination of former Seoul city councilor Kim Kyung as a DP candidate ahead of the 2022 local elections. Kang was ousted from the party after the allegations surfaced last month.
The arrest motion passed in a 164-87 vote with three abstentions and nine invalid ballots during a parliamentary plenary session.
