Ted, > I am curious.....corruption seems pretty standard in SK. If true, do you know why?

I'm not really sure why.

It could be because South Korea modernized rather quickly, but old-school politics die hard. I hear that in many cultures, it's customary to give money and/or gifts to people in power for favors. Korea obviously is one of them.
