SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Lee Jae-myung, who rose from childhood poverty to become South Korea’s leading liberal politician vowing to fight inequality and corruption, will become the country’s next president on Wednesday after an election that closed one of the most turbulent chapters in the young democracy.

Lee, 60, the candidate of the liberal opposition Democratic Party, is taking office for a full, single five-year term, succeeding Yoon Suk Yeol, a conservative who was felled over his stunning yet brief imposition of martial law in December.

they love action movies of westerners, were asian so my parents love these movies, they always see white as legitimiate.rich or superior. its no wonder beast/paul bros are big there too.

why do you think ROCK and JOHN xina has been catering to china.

Strange. So they have a positively skewed view from our celebrities? Really surprising that they would like the Pauls, if only because of how disrespectful they were on their little... tourist trips. I'm an American, I have a strong dislike for most celebrities, especially the Royal Family/Kardashian type. Thanks, interesting answer.

they dont care about drama in the west, like europe and us does. they just to see westerners, do funny stuff or action movies. there was a whole thread on reddit about mr beast and his lunchly fiasco. someone said his products were being sold overseas, and none of them talk about his current drama. i heard thier shitty food is sold out in asia.
