DP demands presidential chief of staff, senior secretaries resign en masse over sex scandal
The main opposition Democratic Party (DP) demanded Sunday that the presidential chief of staff and all senior secretaries resign en masse to take responsibility for sexual abuse allegations involving a now-fired spokesman.
The DP also demanded that President Park Geun-hye apologize in person, and the ruling Saenuri Party agree to hold a parliamentary hearing on the case.
The former spokesman, Yoon Chang-jung, was sacked following allegations that he sexually abused his temporarily-hired secretary in her early 20s in Washington, while accompanying South Korean President Park Geun-hye on her first visit to the United States last week.
