Recreated Lee Myung-bak style. What could go wrong?
With policies extremely unpopular and the election season coming up early next year, Yoon seeks top down control of media. Yoon is expected to appoint Yoo In-chon the Culture and Sports Minister, a role he served in the Lee Myung-bak administration, notorious for his "blacklist" of actors, artists, and script writers labeled leftist. Yoo is depicted as the face on the larger horse with Yoon on his back to drive leftists to hell. Apparently, Yoo is known for his rude character. The face on the smaller horse is Lee Dong-gwan, another Lee Myung-bak advisor, who is currently on the presidential staff, and is expected to be appointed Chair of the Korean Communications Commission, in spite of a political cover up arranged on his behalf to quell a school violence and bullying scandal in which his son had been embroiled in the past. Lee's son got special treatment (opa chance) rather than the mandatory ethics hearing, expulsion and potential bar from college admission. The two new Yoon appointees could operate in tandem to censor non-compliant South Korean media.
Kim Tae-hyo mastermind of the March coup this year to elimate foreign policy and national security advisors questioning Yoon's complete capitulation to US-Japanese policy objectives. South Korea no longer has its own national interests.
