Segye Ilbo: Goh Kun Will Not Run
At a press conference tomorrow, Goh will supposedly make it official. [Update: he made it official.]
First, Goh was Korea’s too-short vacation in what seemed a lot like reality. Later, for exactly 15 minutes, Goh was the Paris Hilton of Korean politics: arousing to a desperate, lonely few, whose adoration couldn’t quite mask the fact that he was just more of the same talentless, plasticky pap we’ve seen so many times before. As with Hilton, a merciful God will allow us to forget all about Goh very soon. This is not to say that we will. It’s only to say that in a just world, we’d have never known either of their names to begin with.
