Korean media: Park Geun-hye's new book says "never for the benefit of others out of selfishness"

According to the South Korean "Chosun Ilbo" website reported on December 31, 2021, former South Korean President Park Geun-hye wrote in the book "Not Everyone Misses Anyone" (tentative translation) that appeared on the 30th: "If I can do things for South Korea, I will do it." ”

The book is a correspondence between Ms. Park, who was arrested in March 2017, and her supporters, and was written by lawyer Yoo Young-ha.

Park Geun-hye said: "It can be clearly said that I have not done an ugly thing for the benefit of anyone out of selfishness. ”

Regarding the sewer wreck, Park Geun-hye said: "The situation on the day of the sinking of the Sewol was so shocking that it is very difficult to recall the situation now." I was not in good health that day and received a report at the official residence. Regarding the situation at the time of the sinking of the Sewol ... I have no reason to hide, and there is no reason to hide. I think that in the future, over time, we will find out what is the truth. ”

In her concluding remarks, Park Geun-hye wrote: "Although I strive to make a good life for my citizens, it is unbearable to see everything that I am doing because the people around me have exceeded the rules, and the appearance of civil servants being tortured." Seeing the people who have accompanied me since I first started in politics and throwing all the black pots on me also made me feel the impermanence of life. ”

"I let go of the heart of blaming, accusing, and blaming others, and felt that all the shackles should be carried by me. Although I disappointed everyone, I was able to persevere until now because of the warm and loving letters sent to me by the people. ”
