| Abstract: | It reads like a classic tale of revenge in a feudal court, with President Kim Young Sam purging his predecessors in a bid to secure his own future. But the bibery indictments of former President Roh Tae Woo and seven top businessmen on Dec.5 are clear evidence that as South Korea's democracy deepens, the corrupt old system is gradually giving way to one that is more transparent and market-oriented. Speaking before a national TV audience in sad, reverent tones, senior prosecutor Ahn Kang Min outlined a pattern of massive corruption entrenched at the highest levels of Korean society. |
