On July 22, the Global Network quoted South Korea's "Chosun Ilbo" as saying that South Korean President Moon Jae-in is considering an 8.15 "Guangfu Day" amnesty for Lee Jae-yong, vice president of Samsung Electronics. The report also mentioned that the Blue House is also considering pardoning former President Park Geun-hye.
"Easter" amnesty Park Geun-hye? Are you sure? If Moon does, what are the main considerations? Personally, I think it is possible that Moon Jae-in will pardon Park Geun-hye on "Guangdong Day".
First, there are loud calls in South Korea for amnesty for Park Geun-hye. In addition to park geun-hye's 2%-4% fans who have been asking for amnesty for Park Geun-hye, since this year, both the ruling party and the opposition party have called for amnesty for Park Geun-hye. Within the ruling party, Lee Rok-won, former prime minister of South Korea and former leader of the Common Democratic Party, had asked Moon Jae-in to pardon Park Geun-hye; in the opposition party, Kim Young-woo, a former member of the South Korean National Forces, demanded amnesty for Park Geun-hye; and the recently appointed mayor of Seoul, South Korea, Oh Se-hoon, and Busan Mayor Park Hyung-woo also suddenly asked for amnesty for Park Geun-hye when they had dinner with Moon Jae-in. In the face of the repeated calls for amnesty for Park Geun-hye in South Korea, how can Moon Jae-in turn turn a deaf ear?
Second, Moon must consider his own way back. With South Korea's presidency in May 2017, Moon has less than a year left in his five-year presidency and must consider his own way back. In South Korea, there has not been a good president so far, so is Moon Jae-in also following the old path of former South Korean presidents? Moon Jae-in aspires to be the first true president in South Korean history to do good, so he must take action. Therefore, Moon Jae-in's pardoning of Park Geun-hye is both for Park Geun-hye's sake and for her own sake. If Moon Jae-in pardons Park Geun-hye, and a member of Park Geun-hye's Progressive Party is elected president of South Korea, he may turn a blind eye to Moon Jae-in and not carry out political reckoning with Moon Jae-in; conversely, if Moon Jae-in does not pardon Park Geun-hye, as long as Park Geun-hye's Progressive Party is elected president of South Korea, a political reckoning of Moon Jae-in is inevitable.
Third, Park Geun-hye's physical condition is terrible. Park Geun-hye has been in poor health and suffers from more than 10 diseases. Long-term detention center and detention center life is a serious consideration for Park Geun-hye's health. Park Geun-hye was hospitalized in the hospital for more than a month, and the South Korean Ministry of Justice released news on July 20, local time, saying that Park Geun-hye, who was detained in the Seoul Detention Center, was admitted to Seoul Notre Dame Hospital for treatment of old diseases on the same day. Park Geun-hye is already 70 years old, as a "three-no-woman" without parents, husbands and children, there is almost no possibility of making a comeback and making a comeback, and Moon does not have to worry about retaliating against park geun-hye after receiving amnesty.
Moon jae-in held a total of four pardons during his administration, but not once was Park Geun-hye on the amnesty list. If Moon Jae-in really considers pardoning Lee Jae-yong on "Gwang-Bah", then she may as well pardon Park Geun-hye on Gwang-eun. To be honest, there is not much time left for Moon. If Moon does not pardon Park Geun-hye, he will miss a rare and precious opportunity – it is estimated that the president after Moon Jae-in, whether the Progressive Party or the Conservative Party is in power, amnesty park Geun-hye is very likely.
