President-elect Park Geun-hye is likely to announce her nominee for chief presidential secretary as early as Monday and the nominee will be tasked with vetting those who will fill the incoming Cabinet, senior officials at the ruling party said Sunday.
Park's nominee for prime minister, Kim Yong-joon, withdrew last week amid media allegations over unethical real-estate deals and questions about how his two sons were exempted from military service, posing an embarrassment for her efforts to form a new government.
