How Korean Politicians Steal Money in Office | Five Easy Steps! | Another Missing Official

Look, two people dead in two weeks to keep their mouths shut involving a presidential candidate is highly sus.

How do the men at the top steal from the pockets of taxpayers without dirtying their hands in office? Here are the five easy steps. The example comes from the not-so-easy to follow Daejang development scandal that alleges liberal presidential candidate Lee Jae Myeong is the head honcho behind the curtain. (He was the mayor of the city where this construction project was approved.)

But what's the latest shocker? Just two weeks after one official involved in the corrupt land deal self-offed himself and left this planet (there's already another one in the slammer who's talking), a SECOND OFFICIAL SUPPOSEDLY self-offed himself too right before he was supposed to go in for further witness testimony.

That means that now there are two people connected to the liberal presidential candidate who self-offed themselves this month while under investigation over a corrupt land development project. Did these two people really make this choice or was the choice made for them? And how do their roles connect to Lee Jae Myeong, the man running for president of South Korea (who denies any involvement)?

Instead of going into the weeds and working backwards through all the confusing shell companies, I offer you an easier path to understand how this works. It's a template that will be relevant even after all of this news dies down. Consider it a basic primer on how to steal money and (hopefully) not get caught when you're a politician in office.
