I think that the corruption scandal in South Korea, which is a model country in the Asian region, will controversial consequences for the image of the country abroad. First, it shows that how strongly Korean people, national courts, media and opposition parties deal with corruption case despite the highest rank of the accused person.

It is a sign of Korean democracy, to which majority of Asian nations look as a model state or successful example of intelligent management. On the other side, the corruption scandal directly points out to some serious political crisis as it might threaten to damage the positive image of South Korea as one of the honest countries in Asia, and even far beyond.
