Korea's ill-fated presidents
In May, I had the chance to attend a dinner with the then-presidential secretary of civil affairs, Kim Jo-won, along with several senior journalists. Touching on his prime concern at Cheong Wa Dae, Kim, now retired, said he had always been paying heed to ensure President Moon Jae-in would be able to retire from the presidency safely and enjoy his remaining life comfortably.
