She is a friend of disgraced former President Park Geun-hye, and is alleged to have used the PyeongChang Olympics to extract money from companies. In the past, businesses actively purchased tickets in large numbers ...

The state-run real estate developer LH's decision to ban Daewoo from bidding for public construction projects has further dampened investor sentiment, according to industry analysts. They say the state-run bank has to accept what the highest bidder offers if it wants to dispose of its 50.75 percent stake in the builder. Or it could nullify the sale process if it cannot get the bidde...
