Evidence of democracy in South Korea

The Constitutional Court of South Korea ruled to oust the country’s President Pak Geun Hye and for the impeachment, all eight judges voted for this. Kyrgyz media followed all process while only highlights the fact of impeachment. And of course, there were different opinions. Many local residents took this fact as evidence of democracy. I want to indicate only a small part of the comments left by readers in social networks:“Impeachment of the century”, “A country where there is democratization”,  “This is a democracy”…

Many were shocked because the President of one country is leaving her position because of a corruption scandal. Because as we know, many high-ranking politicians are untouchable, even if they are engaged in unclean affairs. Still, want to point out, many were shocked by the fact that the scandal broke out because of the journalists of one channel. This shows that in this country journalism is developing in a democratic direction.
