Bad news for ordinary, not-rich Koreans. Bad news for Japan.

Along with laws limiting presidents to a single 5-year-term, there should be a law banning the offspring of former presidents from running for any political office. And hopefully once such a law is passed in S. Korea Americans might become influenced to pass a similar law. No more political family dynasties -- please!

What is it with family dynasties in so called Asian democracies? Korea, Philippines, Indonesia etc.

It's because Korea is a democracy that Park is allowed to run.
